I already run Mickey Thompson ET Street Drag Radials 255/50R16 when I go to the track and I love those. Much better racing on those than on regular street tires thats for sure. 60 foots went from 2.0 to 1.8 just switching to drag radials. The best I can do so far, but still working on my driving.

When I get the chance I'll be trying out a set. Just a quick check around and people are pulling 1.7's on these. They look to be equivelent to the ET Streets and that they have pretty much no thread.

I've seen em and from what I hear E.T. Streets are alot better.

I have the BFG Goodrich Drag Radials and those hook like a mother. I was actually surprised at how well they hooked. I love them. They are probably one of the underrated drag radials in my opinion.

yep, can vouch for that. Had a supercharged 347 in a mustang, c4 trans, had 17 inch wheels all around. Made over 500rwhp. Actually sometimes hooked on the street w/ 275/40/17 bf drags. so for a drag radial to hold that power, thats a GOOD tire.....just my .02
