    Agreed with Steve.

    Slicks for a stick car
    Dr's would be fine for auto.

      Also it is my experience that the Mt et street radial hooks better than a wider Mt et street. So I would rule those out in almost every case.

        So no old scholl e/t street tires that look like slicks with the little line in them. Like the idea of those because they r dot approved?

                go with these, back in the day when these first came out in late 90's, they were my everyday tire and perfect for street racing when we use to do it from a dig.

                  The side walls on those and the et street radials are just as soft but the et street radials have a much softer rubber and hook better IMO. maybe someone else with personal experience will hime in as well.

                  I see you already bought slicks, don't get caught in the rain! :P for racing there's nothing better.

                        What did the wheels/tires run you? I saw them on a C/S at my old dealership, they look awesome. If I do go with aftermarket wheels soon they'll probably be a race wheel. Good looking cars guys, eibach lowering kit?

                            et streets only fool local cops, same with hoosier qtp.

                            State trooper will write a ticket for them as they dont have a full face of tread. I was popped a few times back in the day. Got most of them thrown out, but had to pay one.
