The ET Streets are just "street legal" slicks. They don't have much tread at all. The ET Street radials are what I use and they are super sticky. It would be just a matter of time before you broke something with the ET Streets or ET Drags. Hell, you can break something with d/r's too. Here are the MT ET Street radial (d/r) tires I use on my Welds.

slicks would be over kill. just get some et streets. they are basically slicks with a line in the middle to make them DOT aproved. and they are little bit harder compound to get you from point a and to point b without picking up every rock and trash on the road. your stock rear will take maybe a couple hard launches on the slicks before somthing breaks since ur tires arent spinning its gonna put a **** load of stress on your stock rear.
