Default Which MT Drag radial

I'm debating between their new ProBracketRadial #3355R 28x10.5R15 and the ET Street Radial Pro#3754X 275/60-15.
I've ran their original ET Street Radials in the past with good results, now I want to try something new or better. For those that are running or have ran these two new drag radials, let me know what you think of them.

I ran a set of 275/50 et street R's last year and they hooked perfect at the track and pretty good on the street. Running the 275/60 pro's this year. Hook well on the street (probably because the taller side walls). No track times yet but they came off my buddies ultra street car. He runs 4.80's 1/8th and 7.70's 1/4

We run the Pro bracket 28x10.5 on a 1,300hp x275 car. They seem to work slightly better than the pro radial on a bad track. when the track would go away the car would blow the tires off before. now the car seems to be getting down when everyone else isn't. car has been 1.11 60ft. average 1.14 60fts usually.

I've ran all 3, on my car really didn't make a difference. Just got the Pro Brackets, about 6 passes no difference.
But get the Pro Brackets, there more like a slick with radial sidewalls.

Pro bracket radial. Once I wear out my 28" Hoosier radial I'm swapping to a pro bracket 26.

Looks like I'm leaning on to the Pro Bracket Radials as well.

I have not ran them on the street, just on the track, but I am happy with the Pro Bracket radials I put on my 67 Firebird Stock Eliminator car a few weeks ago so far. Bracket racing, they are working well in the TX heat. Seem to be wearing well. Do not need much burnout. Not quite as fast as the 30x9 Hoosier radial slicks, but little faster than the 29.5x9 MT bias slicks they replaced. The Hoosier radials are fast, but not forgiving and do not last. Just for well prepped tracks on Stock Eliminator or good suspension cars. The ProBracket seem much more forgiving on hot or marginal track.
Good luck with them.
Ken

Apparently, the old ET Street Radial is now the ET Street S/S. They have the typical sizes like 275/60-15 and 275/40-17, etc.

Just came across this thread im in the same boat, I have a 295/55 Hoosier radial now was looking to get the 28x10.5 Pro bracket radial but want to see some real world results first. I started with a mickey 295/55 drag radial and that tire did a marginal job at best, went to the Hoosier drag radial and 60ft went from 1.58 to 1.52. I just dont wanna make the move back to the mickeys and have it be an inferior tire to the Hoosier.

I forgot to mention that I too, had ran Hoosier drag radials for a short time as well(325/50's). Best sixty foot times of 1.42-1.47 consistently on my old LT1 set up.
I'm hoping for the new MT Pro Bracket radials to be much better.

I ended up getting the ET Street Radial Pro 3754X 275/60's. Will be here Tuesday, along with their ET Fronts 26x4.0-15"s.

I'd like to know how the ET Street Pro's work on the street. Also how they hold up for a semi street car?

They have the "NOT FOR STREET USE" stamp on them.

We've been 1.123 on the pro tire at 32xx lbs.

4.56 to the 1/8 at the same weight in Street outlaw trim. Used the 3062R and think that the car likes the 28x10.5w that we used last weekend in a subpar track.

Granted we had to change the suspension settings and weight bias to run on a slick vs a radial, and have SR2 to help with driveshaft speed.

Pros drive okay on the street, I have a pair of those and a pair of ET STreet R's in 275/60.

But I think I might get PBR for next year because sometimes my local track (GLD) is not consistent.
