What tire to replace ET Streets? - 01/09/17 01:43 AM

Just curious what you guys recommend to replace some 30 X 12.50 X 15 ET Streets? Are the Hoosier Quick Time Pros the next best thing? FWIW, they are going on a 3700lb Roadrunner with an automatic, 3500 stall, SS leaf springs with a 1.68 60' on a good day. They will also see street use. Thanks guys! up

ive had great luck with qtp's on both my cars. The roadrunner just has old Gtx leaf springs and is absolutely nothing trick. Been a 1.53 60ft & 4000# driving it to the track.

That is what I am running now. I was running the old ones but they stopped making them. I broke an axle on the 3rd pass with the new Pros. A best of 1.33 60 ft. so far.

The ET street radial pro is not DOT approved, or recommended, but yes its a great tire.

This is probably more along the lines of what you need with a car that will see some miles. 295/65/15 should work well.

The ET Radial Pro certainly is DOT approved. M/T explicitly states it is not intended for street use for liability reasons.

The 315 ET Street Radial Pro is apparently no joke. After reading this article, I'm thinking they're probably overkill for my application. Still leaning pretty hard towards giving them a shot though. May use them on one of my other cars if they work that well.
