running 26x10.5x16 et streets on my thirdgen. ive cut a 1.66 60ft with them so far. i love them and im not running tubes. the only thing is when you air them down below 15 psi they will try and wander at the back of the track. i drive mine out to the track 45 miles away at 20 psi and air them down when i run. ive heard that the et street radials hook better but i have never used them so i wouldnt know.
