I've narrowed it down to these 2, which one would be the better choice? I'll be on a 100-125 shot, they are both 27" tall.
MT ET street 27x10.5x15
MT DR 255/60/15

Like 90% of the people on here confuse the two.
There is the MT ET street (do not put radial at the end or it confuses people)
Then there is the MT Drag radial.
As far as I know what you see is what you get with the ET streets. Its the full slicks that you can get stiffer or weaker...
I hear stick cars don't like the drag radials or stiffer sidewalls.

Yes, the ET Street is a soft wrinkle wall tire with 3 "tread" lines going down the tire that makes it DOT approved. Don't let this fool you, these tires are not made to be driven in rain as they are basically slicks and should be used only for racing. This will be your best bet with an M6 car.

I prefer the hoosier QTP's over the MT ET street bias ply tires. I really don't have too many problems with the MT DR's but then again i dont make a ton of power, or have an extreme setup either. The DR's are defn more finicky but for me they are consistant.

I would go with the 26X11.5 ET Street.
I have always been a fan of slicks over radials for 6-Speed cars
