RE: M/T slicks
do you only run 1/8 mile?

Agreed. I have the MT ET Street Radials(stiff sidewall) in a 275/40/17, and they are great. My suspension is limiting me to mid 1.7 60ft's. Not too shabby.
An ET Drag(full slick) would be wayyy too much for a mid 9sec 1/8 mile car.
Hey code and 01GT4.6, do you think a 28in tire would help me any? I'm running 470+rwhp/550+rwtq with 4.10 gears. What would it do differently than a 26?

Get some d/r's. You're gonna break something. The MT d/r's give 4 second 1/8th mile cars plenty of traction. They will definately give youthe traction you're looking for.

90% of the time, yes. 60fts are really what's important to me. I would like to be in the 1.5 range with a built rear, and few more suspension pieces, and ET Streets.
