you can have tools but the the two wheels in the car while racing. and if i where to leave them out someone will jack them. damn CA.. i usually swap the wheels at the track. but i just got some new wheels and i dont want them to be stolen.

well roll there on the 10 holes... nobody should be stealing those... and or drag another buddy there with you so you can stash in their ride or so they can watch over your stuff for you.
and why dont you just order a set of drag radials new and be done with it my nitto 275's were right under 400 for the 2 brand new and mounted from discount tire.

you canrun the ET streets without to much problems but if it rains you will be hating life TRUST ME. make sure you just put more air in them before you leave the track. they will move around more then the radials will also do to them being Bias-plytires. or you could get a chain and chain your tire to a post some where till the end of the race then just switch back

RE: ET Streets question
i got the et streets, love them, good traction, drove in the rain once, not a prob, so i took it in a parking lot while wet, stops very good but when i hammered on it, they spun, so just take it easy and no worries. they wont last a long time dd, so get an extra set and find a buddy.
