I'm running the radials and love them...they hook like crazy. If the car will see street duty, go with the radials.

Street driving= street radials. It'll be safer than riding on et streets all the time.

Drag Radials for the street but if thats a 8/9 second car you wont have any traction either way.

I find the ET street radials were not the best for my 6 speed - I am switching to ET streets
