best drag radials
best drag radials looking to get the best drag radials for my thirdgen camaro. if they were in stock i would have already order a set of et street radials. but ive been looking around the net and saw that there are alot of people having good luck with the hoosiers. what is the best bang for my buck drag radial. keep in mind these are something im gonna drive on for street use.
My first vote is the micket thompsons but if you dont want to wait i say the bfg drag radials. I have the mt now and have had the bfg and driven my buddys camaro with the nittos. Nittos last the longest dont hook that great. Bfg hooked good and were good for street use unless u were in the rain. The micekys hook the best but will wear the fastest an are fine on the street unless your in the rain.
had some nittos on mine and i will never put another set on. they wheel hopped and my 60ft was better with my hankooks from pepboys. i just got rid of a set of mickey thompson et streets and they hooked great. now im just getting drag radials to have on the car all the time. ive got a spool but the car only goes out like 1-2 times a week so the et street radials would probly last forever. i think thats the route im goin. i just heard that hoosiers were decent.
i'm rollin on the hoosier QTP's which are like the ET Streets. I'm gonna throw a set of the MT Radials on my spare set of rims to see if they work better or not. The radials are pretty heave at like 30 lbs a piece vs 18 for the QTP's

Mickeys are unbelievable. I've been running them full time lately because the weather has been warm and dry. Well, today the weather dropped into the 30's and I was too lazy to change them. I couldn't believe it, but they were still grippy out on the streets. My Nittos were a joke when temps dropped into the 40's.
That being said, I wouldn't drive Mickeys much more than about 30mph in the rain. Nittos will do ok in the rain even at freeway speeds until they are about half worn.

wow, i dont know how you got 16k miles on your mt. I must have a heavier foot. I got like 3-4k out of my bfg drag radials and i only went to the track once on them. Im hoping my 325.50.15 mt radial will last longer since they dont spin as much.
