Ok guys, now i have a different/but same question for ya.

i am going to get some MT ETs... but the DRs seem to be great. would you choose one over the other and why? keep in mind that these WILL NOT be street driven and just bolted on at the track.

The MT is the hardest hooking Drag Radial available, but it is a slick in sheeps clothing if you get my drift.

If you want a good hooking DR that will also handle daily driving and a fair bit of miles look into the BFG's.

Get either the et drags or the radial.The differance between the et street and et drags of the same size was huge.The et streets have a smaller contact patch and require a big burn out get them to hook.As all ways,if the car is a drag only car use,tire screws.

Driving in the rain with ET Streets would be insane, I went through a wet spot on the road where sprinklers are one time and the car instantly started sliding at like 30 MPH or so. Been in the rain on completely bald Nittos in an ass end happy 94 Z28, that wasnt fun either.
