I come home from work today, unloaded em, opened the garage and I swear she was smiling at me. I was like... :redface:

They measure 27" x 9" aired up to 25psi. MT ET Street 27 x 10.5 - 15
I will take some pics of them installed this weekend.
I think they might hook, what do you guys and gals think?

Great size. What made you go with the ET Streets as opposed to 255/60/15 DR's? They're both basically the same size.

 

[RUQWKNF]

A few reasons actually. One was real world results from a good friend of mine from back home who did testing with these exact two tires at the track with similar driving techniques as mine. 255/60/15 DR vs 27x10.5 ET Street. (Rock on Andre) Two was the experience I had with them on my old white car. (best 60ft of a 1.52 on stock rear suspension, dual air bags, no front sway bar and 90/10s) And three, my tendency of launching the car as hard as possible at the strip are what really swayed me to the ET Streets. (12-15psi launches) That and I'm not worried about how they handle on the street as long as they hook at a red light when something serious pulls up beside me and I have to get serious with the boost. And if i get caught in the rain, I'll find a car wash or gas station and change the tires. Radials will always be in the trunk with a small jack and 4 way.
I like the fact that they are basically a slick with grooves and a DOT number.
I'll post an update after this weekend with some times.
Thanks for viewing.

They look just like my old tube type M&H Racemasters. I admit they look meaner than the DR's. I bet you're right....these types of tires like to be "shocked" as in trans brake launches. Hope your axles and rear is up to the task....

They look sticky . Do they sell those in a 26" or so height?

 

[UNDER-PRESSURE]

Those look real nice on the stock rims! I'm looking forward to hearing about the track results.
