Mickey Thompson ET Streets are slicks with just the 4 lines of tread. They are Bias Ply. They prob have the street drag radials which are radials tires. |
I know people who use both the street radials are used more on the 11-12 second cars and high 9 to 10 second cars use the et streets claiming they dont go through as many tires cause they dont light up as easily
|
Anyways I didnt mean to be rude by coming in here and disagree with something. congratulations on your run!

the ET Street RADIALS are meant for the street... ET Street Radial = Mickey Thompson Performance Tires & Wheels ET Street = Mickey Thompson Performance Tires & Wheels CAUTION: It is not recommended that radial and non-radial tires be mixed on the same vehicle.. they are called ET Streets because they still qualify for use in street tire events at the track, but are not meant for street use at all. the ET Streets cause a swaying feeling when you get up to speed that I dont believe anyone would want to live with.. the et street radials should feel solid on the track and street... and still have the traction of the bias plys. Overall they are the tire to get, I just purcahsed the ET Streets ( slicks ) because the price was right and came with a set of wheels I could use too. |
Traction isn't going to be the same. Drag radials work better on AT equipped cars because they have a more difficult time handling the shock of a MT. It takes a lot of finesse to launch a MT car with drag radials.

i have the MT 305 35 18 drag radials.
Going to the track june 26. will post time slips. |

no i mean stock of that day when i tested! and what i meant about your test is did you test your car before you made your modifications to get a before and after timing? on of the reasons im not making any major upgrade not is first because im not racing lol second to get a real change in speed you have to put big money into the car, and $1000 to $3000 is way to much just to get a half of a sec or so for me :) i want absolute secs when i make a changes like 13sec to 9sec with the cheapest cost |
welll than supercharging or nitrous or turbo is the path you should take.. I am happy with being faster than the next Z by a few cars and the other cars in our class... our cars teater on the tip of being a fast street car and these mods i did I feel def pushed it more towards the tipping point of what I would call a fast car for the street..
stock we would have trouble with srt 8s camaro ss's now its a drivers race with most of them and that makes it more fun.. I think I may shoot her with a 100 shot when I go to the track this fall.. for *****.. I want to see what I can pull out of this car with 100 hp... and than I will decide on its future modifications |

imo you are better off with a taller sidewall tire on a smaller rim, it will weigh less as well..
i mounted mine of 300zx turbo wheels.. 26.5x10 on 16 inch wheels... the drag radials come in that size too.. But Z's wheels are mounted on Volk te37's i believe |
the wheels are Volk T 37's, 18 x 10.5 + 15.
