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've had get luck with my Nitto DR's on the street / track...

I think a lot of guys run the nittos, I've seen their off roading tires ect, so if the street tires are anything like them they appear to be decent tires.

I run M/T drag radials. I couldn't ask for a better performing tire.

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

I'd recommend the Nitto DRs for a car that sees mostly street. They wear really nice and when you get them good and hot at the track they get a LOT sticker than a normal street tire.

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.

my et streets hook better then my hoosier slicks at the track. on the street they are ok, i cant floor it in first or ill spin them but about half way through second they will hook if i punch it.
