ET Streets with Radials up front??
I just got some ET Streets to use at the track and I saw that it says on them not to be used with radial tires. And well I have radial tires in the front. I am going to drive to and from the track with this setup, Maple Grove is only like 8 miles from my house, is this okay, or should I get skinnies with bias ply tires up front. Thanks for the input.

You will notice some handling difference but it is not to bad. I have ET streets on the back and radials on the front, and i drive probably 20 miles to the track. You need to keep the psi up in them till you get to the track.

I've run them with my radials, and as mentioned above, keeping them above 20 psi will help in the drive to and from the track. No problems here
