275/40-17 isn't that about the size of a 17" ET street?

There was a test in Hotrod magazine and the drag radials actually beat the ET's. They did multiple passes in a 11.50 car and he had his all time best time with the drag radials. They made a comment that they were in a different league than the BFG.

I see them now under street radial , how much are those?

[Roadkill]

so BFG or ET streets are better???

[Jack B]

The ET streets are the old bias ply slicks. They are no different than a full slick and far better than BFG's which are a radial. The first post discusses the new Mickey Thompson drag radials which are even better than the old ET bias plys, therefore, also better than the BFG's.
