Default help me choose from these two.
i need some stickey tires for the track that will fit some stock 16" salad shooters. I narrowed it down to hoosier QTP or mickey thompson ET streets(not the radial). I have a h\c ls1 with a 150 shot and a yank SS3600 converter. Which tire will give me the best ET?

I would go for the ET Streets. I drove on 26 10.5/15s for a good while (weekends) and pulled the wheels quite a few times with them. They hook good and have a alright side wall for the street.
