Default Decisions decisions... M/T ET Streets or M/T Drag Radials?

Im going to be purchasing a set of track only tires soon... going on some 15x8 Weld Draglites. Looks like, according to M/Ts website, the Drag Radials are actually a softer tire.... and Ive seen people hook up REAL good on them which is why Im considering them.

Anyone have any suggestions as to which one to run?

Thanks...........

I've ran both and would go with the radial, they definately work at the track and have better stability with the radial sidewall. I cut consistent mid 1.30 60's on the 325's(same as on slicks). Good luck.

i have streets and mine friend as radials... i have a little bit less power.. i almost dead hook on street and he spins through first some and hooks in second..

i have a 4000 stall he has 3500.. he has 373s i have 323s.. id say they are about the same.

id go with the radials if i were gonna buy them new though.
