I'm glad this thread popped up because I am going to be getting some MT ET Streets soon and was considering the 28" x 11.5" for my 16" wheels since I am looking for all the traction I can get, but this thread has turned me off to that idea. These are some badass looking cars, but they look much more "drag car" than I'm looking to go. I want more of a street look and less of a strip look than what I see in these pictures.

That said, I wonder if I'll have to stick with 26" or if 27" will still keep some of that street look. I'm also not sure if I still want the 11.5" over the 10.5" since they will be going on a stock 12-bolt and I don't plan on modifying anything I don't NEED to. Any thoughts?

I would just stick with a m/t drag radial as wide as you can find. Did you mean stock 7.5 rear end?

Whoops, it's a Moser 12-bolt. They are gonna be ET Streets, but the non-radial version. I have Nittos for the street, so these are strictly for the track (may get driven to the track once or twice). I'm just not sure if the 27" will work well or if I should just stick with 26". I also don't know about 10.5" or 11.5" depending on which diameter I go with. Will the 11.5"s fit on the 16"x8" wheels and will they stick out much from the wheel well?

Car looks killer Dustin! Do you run tubes in your et drags and have cops harassed you much about them not having any tread?
