Drag Radials

MATT02GT · July 26th, 2007, 01:40 PM

What are some of you guys running at the track? Im getting tired of these 2.3 60ft times with street tires. I was looking into some Mickey Thompson ET Street Radials, they seem to be the best Ive seen so far. Ive heard some bad things about the Nitto's not hooking up to great from some guys around here.

I say if you are going to be driving it on the street some then you should get the nittos, but if not and its a track only car get the MT ET streets. The nittos will last about 4 times longer! also you just have to heat them up really well.

I got some used nittos from another guy who beat them up for $150 the pair, I beat the crap out of them, and still have lots of meat left. They hooked pretty good for me.

MT's will hook like crazy, but will not last long on the street...

I have the Nitto DR's and I love 'em! On the street they are awesome! On the track, they are a little tricky. While not the best DR for the track, as mentioned earlier, they do last the longest. I've driven on mine everyday since May and they still have alot of life left. I go to the track 2-3 times a month too! As for 60ft. times, I've only managed a best of 2.018 with the DR's and a 2.019 with Fuzion ZRI's.
