I have ET Street radials, and don't like to run them on the street too much. As said above, they pick up every small pebble you run over and throw them at your car. Also, If you're looking for street traction, I find that when they're inflated to street psi levels, they don't hook much better than a standard radial. But get them down around 20 psi, so they have some flex, and they work great.

how do those street radials pass an inspection for a street car?? that's why I've been leaning towards the sportsman s/r series but the size I need is $100 more per tire!
Just go with Hoosier QTP's they are great street/ strip tires and DOT approved. Many sizes.
same question, how can they pass inspection? DOT approved does not mean legal for street use. not all of us use 'antique' plates that exempt from inspection.
