Ahhh ok man cause I was gonna say you either caught him or was really close. you hooked pretty good looked like he launched before you. But good race. I really did enjoy that kid posting the turbo rated a 600+ hp the gt35r is good to a max of 600 hahahaha rice... only uncle ben makes it good.

Ok sorry i got OT.

 

I run mine 17 psi until i get to the track then drop it to 12 and get em nice n hot

 

Lets run this through since I see a bunch of crap in this thread

1- ET street RADIAL works better on an unprepped street than a ET street SLICK type

2- Stock suspension and ET Street can hook just fine (personal 1.4 60')

3- I drove all the time with ET street SLICK type on my car with regular 245s up front and got no lane walk until they were aired down for track use, put them up to 24 for road use and you will be fine, just don't go swerving around.

4- ET street radials will be way more than enough to hook up your car. They can go 7s on them, I'm sure you will be just fine.


Get it? Got it, good.

 

They're slicks, get used to it.

 

I don't even consider them slicks, They just are not DOT approved. I think they call them "cheater slicks"

 

I know, they're just a "street slick" so if you get nailed for them you can still say they have "Legal tread-depth"

 

and give officer friendly a sloppy kiss on the cheek and say now got them run-a-way donuts

 

ive run et streets with my 17in street rims in front very scary. it was alot better with the 15 by 4s in the front
the ets are 26/11.50/16 they hook hard at the track not so much on the street. i think my nittos work better LOL and alot safer

 

They ARE dot approved http://www.mickeythompsontires.com/s...?item=ETStreet

Air them up properly and you will get hardly any top end walk. I drove around on mine all the time everywhere. Put them up at 24ish PSI and you will hardly notice unless your swerving around...

 

they are DOT approved.. thats why they got the little lines.. so you can drive them LEGALLY on the street...




ps... OP do a burnout.. that will help a lot.. and if your just spinning like that on the street with those tires.. you will DEAD hook at the track!

 

Oh yeah, my bad on the DOT thing..I never liked the ET Streets. I like the M/T ET Drag Radials much better

 

for street use i think the radials are better.. but at the track the et streets are better...

 

Thanx for all the input fellas, i really appreciate it....Well i pumped them up to 20psi and drove around on them and they werent too bad....Like said, i think a drag radial will work better on the streets, but i have a feeling they will work good on the track...

 

if you are going to pump them way up whats the point
your looking to hook up
i run my 3153517s at 20psi all the time they wear better and hook hard than the ets on the street

 

that still seems kind of a high psi. and still waiting for new video featuring a burn out bro

 

ET streets are DOT. I passed inspection on them and just prior to getting it inspected...1 week before actually, had a cop pull me over for my expired inspection stickers. He saw the tires and said those racing tires? i'm like yeah, they are DOT legal and he never questioned it. He was alittle bit of a car guy

 

will test them out again soon, and i will do a nice burnout and see what they do...

 

Hmm I don't know there is this thing called a tire pressure gauge so when you want to race you can drop them to where they need to be so you can drive on them at 24psi and not have lane walk or wear them fast.....

Well angel we saw that the car will hook once there is a clean road under it. Next time hopefully we can get even better results

 

Yah, a lil more practice and i should be able to launch on a nice road, btw thanx to you and your bud that were helping me test them out last night

 

Anytime man, next time I will be sure to have the proper supplies so we can get some more efficient tests in. But it still seemed like it got out really good till you got to the dusty areas.
