Default et streets or et drags

With my setup I put about 350 hp on the ground. Should I get et streets or et drags? With that power do I really need et drags? I've heard stories of et streets getting squirelly at the finish line. Would I have to drop the psi that much that it woudl make that happen?

For the most part, traction is an issue. The ET drags will hook better, though if you’re planning on using them for street use, the ET streets may be a better compromise. The ET drags aren't DOT legal, if stopped by the police, you could get a fine...this is a stretch, though if he has stopped you to look for a reason for a ticket...this would be a good one: bomb:

I run 26x10.5x16 ET Streets with 360+ to the ground. I can't come close overpowering the tires.
