Default Hoosier QTP DOTs??????

What's the word on them.....i hear they hook like hell, but wear quickly due to the super soft compound. It's that time again for another set of stickies and I am not too sure if I want to run the ET Street Radials again this year. I have worn them down it seems to fast. 3 races left in my season (bracket racer) and they are nearing bald. I don't remember having ET Streets do this but then again, i always bought used sets whenever necessary.

according to summit.......
275/50/15 M/ ET Street Radial - $162
26x11.5x15 Hoosier QTP DOT - $170
26x11.5x15 M/T ET Street - $172
275/50/15 Hoosier DOT Drag Radial - $176

Whats everyone's opinion on the QTP DOT, and the DOT Drag Radial if anyone has used it...

I Have used both and have found that the hoosier's seem to hook really good on the street and the track. The ET streets didn't really work so good for the street but were great at the track.

These are the 315/40/17 Hoosier DOT Drag Radial. Would love to try them on 15" wheel!

I have made about 15 or so passes on them. They hardly have tread to begin with, so they are going to wear down fast.
