Which Drag Radials
You guys may have remembered my post about putting the 4:10 gears in my 89 GT that my brother-in-law gave me. I got them in and what a difference. I also replaced the clutches in the diff=both tires spin now. My rear tires are pretty much shot so i'm thinking of putting some drag radials on it. Which do you guys recomend Nitto, M/T or other. As always I value your opinions.

I ran nittos for a couple years. Good tire for street/strip. Not as good a sticky as Mickeys, but still a good tire none the less. I'm getting ready to put a set of M/T drag radials on my car (already mounted on wheels, just not on the car yet) , but they will be strictly for street use. I race on slicks.

i got a pair of Mickey thompson ET street radials, they work great on the street (havnt had it to the track yet) and i have gotten caught out in the rain a few times and never had any trackion issues with them

i had the nittos.. they were ok they were a good street drag radial. they last quite a long time but as for the track i wouldnt recommend them. they do a decent job but i ran the same 60' w/ street tires.. i want to go w/ mickeys next time. but basically just to drive to the track and back

my vote goes to the nittos also...i have them in 315 on my 94...with the 3.73s i used to spin 1,2, and chirp third..now if it spins its on corners..but straight line in 1 i hook good, second wont spin at all anymore.
