Default Anybody using the 325 50 15r ET Street Drag Radial???

How does it hook compared to a 28" slick? How much fenderwell modding did it take to fit it? I'm trying to decide between it and a true slick for the track. TIA.

i run them on the street, you can put them on a car with no outer fender mods with adjustable lca's. the inner fender requires as much as you are willing to do, they are every bit as wide as a 28w tire. never ran them at the track

What's your opinion on how well it hooks on the street?

well, considering that i had 245 street tires before that its like night and day
once they are hot, if i roll into the throttle and dont dump the clutch, it will just haze them a tad in 1st and then im gone, if you get stuck in the rain, hold on to ya azz cause 2% throttle is all i could give it at 30mph, dry weather they are awsome.

I Just mounted a set this Sat and i had to knock the inner front part of the fender in a little. I am like Rodney, I had a set of 28x10.5's on the car so i didn't have to mod much. The Adj LCA's are a must. I would cut the Bump stop's out if you haven't allready. I probably have any where from 1/16 to 1/8 of an inch clearance on the inside. I drove the car on the street and made a few hard turns to see if they would rub and they didn't.

i am going low 1.5s on my little 275/60/15

IMO those 325 are rediculous unless you are in a radial class that allows for them.
