pretty good tire, hooks like a sumbitch, beware of water/wet roads, if its a dd id go with the nitto, they last longer cost less, and have better wet traction. for a street strip car with all out performance in mind id go with the et dr

are we talking et streets, or the m/t drag radials? i run the drag radials because their a radial tire=better road handling/more stability

they hook awesome tho, i cant ask for more in a DR...

Ive got ET Street drag radials and theyre good on the track.
Ive driven with them on the street and didnt have any issues.

I take them off when Im not going to the track though. I sure wouldnt want to drive with them on all the time.
Ive heard too many stories about having them on in the rain as well.

I love them. I drop the clutch at around 4 grand at the track with no wheel spin, or very little. I got caught in the rain on my way home from the track and they wern't as bad as I thought they were going to be. Next year I am putting a pair on my cobras.
