    Justin, don't you go thru a set every other month :D

    I'd be interested as well to see how they stack up against E/T Streets, I've run the BFG's and liked them pretty well.

    hehe, yeah, i was going through some 275/50/15 BFG dags there for a while. i dont drive it as often now, plus the handling suspension was killing traction! the new drag setup will make things much better! if these new ET street radials are stickier than the BFG's theyre going to be a hot item!

    ROFL!!! thats funny! I really want the low down on these tires! I'm at a loss for tires for next season. Of tread that is.
    89 Coupe with parts stacked inside of it and about 30#'s of dust on it with no end in sight. :weird:





    Although I am collecting parts for a 12.5:1 393 :D

    The word from Mickey Thompson is they will be offering more sizes than the P275/60R15 being tested. Availability is targeted around spring of next year for the initial lineup. They are still
    "tweaking" these tires. One thing for sure - they WILL be faster. The compound is stickier than a BFG and the ET street.

    The New radial hooked as well as the Et streets on my car. Like I said I can't wait to see how they work on an 8-9 second car. The std sized(comparable to Et Streets) tires will be available by spring. With a full lineup of tires and sizes by summer.

    I'll update my site by the end of the week with Drag radial pics

    Pretty!

    I am sure the 555R's are still the choice for street, but I will have to try those on the track!

    We should have some better information after this weekends PSCA race in Phoenix http://www.pscaracing.com/wfraceinfo2003.html . The Radials will be the best DOT Drag tire on the market when MT releases them.
