Post your best 60 on 26x10.5x15 ET Streets
just wondering but will they hold roughly 1.48-1.55's ok? I plan on using that tire with 15x8draglite. Im using streets because I need cruise the streets everynow and then.
I have a feelin when this car hooks now she will be low 1.5's for sure. I dont want to rule out a 1.49 oneday also <img border="0" alt="[judgement]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_judge.gif" /> Hopefully the 10bolt will be as good to me as all the other 1.4's i see being cut on it <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />
so post your best 60 <img border="0" alt="[hail]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_hail.gif" />

Cut 1.5's on Nitto's Drags, you should have no problems on the ET's... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

(1.520)
Ran about 75 passes 1.59 or better on my old set.
Used them to drive to the track 3 hours each way. That's how I ran the time in sig <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
I've now stepped to a set of Hoosier 26x9 slicks. I just starting to get use to them. They hook a little more consistant than the ET Streets.. but have to change them at the track.

If you have the power/torque and suspension is right, getting the 60' you want won't be a problem ith ET Streets. I've seen cars get anywhere from 1.0-1.8's with them, depending on the car and tire combo. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I cut a few 1.48 60' times on that same setup (15x8 and 26x10.5x15)
They are not consistent though (ET Streets) and putting them on 8" wide rims isn't a good idea. You will only have about 7" of tire touching the ground in the middle, giving up a good 1.5" of possible contact patch on both sides of the tire.
Go with 10" wheels if possible

LOL, I couldn't cut better than 1.78 with my ET Streets, but i'm a measly bolt-on car. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" />
I cut 1.70s with my ET Drags now.

Best 60'times:
ET Streets 26X11.5X16(25 passes)Best 1.56 @17psi
HoosierQTP 26X11.5X15(20 passes 1.72 @14psi <img border="0" alt="[Banging Head]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_banghead.gif" />
HoosierQtp 27X11.5X15(7 passes)1.42 @19psi <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />
best ET street(1.56) and 1st set of Hoosiers(1.72) same day same track. I was certainly disappointed in the Hoosiers.
FWIW.
The 2nd set are making me a believer again.

We cut 1.50's on 26x11.5 on 15x10. hooks good enough to break an axle. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
