Default ET Streets

Got a good deal on 26x11.5r16 ET streets mounted on stock Z28 rims. I put them on this morning, and all I can say is wow. I didn't get to really heat them up since I was testing on public roads but they are hella sticky. Can't wait to see what they do at the track

I just bought the exact same wheel/tire combo to replace my BFG Drag Radials as my track tires. I've got a big stall and a cam in the car but I'm hoping traction will be there and I can really see what the car will do. Glad to see a vote of confidence.

The only thing I worry about is the 11.5 on a 8" rim as it's not recommended by MT. What can ya do though when a good deal presents itself?

hey, they're already mounted and since they were cheap...oh well. Let me know how they work out with the cam and stall, I'm doing that real soon

I just mounted a set of 26/11.5s on my stock wheels as well, and I agree that the grip so far is awesome. The launch coming off of the trans brake is unreal.

I use to run nitto's but they just were not cutting it for me, when I put the et's i was majorly pleased, but need to bump up to some 28.5 or 29.5 not to get a better 60
