Best dragtire to get?
I need some input from you guys. The track is reopening after 2.5 years and now its time to get the car ready. I currently have 15X10 Prostars with 7.5in BS.
I ride on BFG 275-50-15s for everyday use. My car roasts these from a takeoff with no problem, on the track or the street. What tire is the most recommended here?
ET Drags
ET Streets
QuickTime Pros
I can't go bigger than 26in tall because I have custom PCM tuning from Ed Wright and going taller will screw with my shift points(A4) I wish I could go with 28's because I have a handle on a local set of ET Drags for 200 bucks with 4 passes on them. But I don't want to pay or send my pcm back to ed for a basic change that he will charge me for.
Help me out, I want to hook good come March 1st.

Thanks Texcamss, the best 60ft on the drag radial was a 1.90, but stayed in the 1.95 range. It spins those things bad. Time to order a pair of ET Streets. That seems to be the perferred choice in my area and on the boards.
Thanks and hopefully I will have some decent numbers to show before I put the Forged 348 in with some more boost thrown at it.

I have a set of 26x11.50-15 ET streets that have only 8 passes on them. I will let them go for $200.00 . They hooked good when the track prep was good , but became inconsistant as the night went on. I needed a solid hook to be competitive in the bracket racing so I had to go to the ET Drags. I am located in the Houston Tx area. Let me know. Take care.
