I rarely run my 5.0 on the street and havent been running the ET streets that long. The side wall really isnt weak at all with the MT ET streets. I run them @16psi and I dead hooked and pulled a 1.79 60ft.

The BF Goodrich drag radials hook up great for a radial but still not as good as ET streets. The BF Goodrich drag radials dont last for shlt if you drive on the street. Normaly about 6,000 miles.

My brother put almost 120 runs on his ET Streets last year with a few monster burnouts and they are still going.

Go with ET Streets the first time and get it right. I put my ET streets on my 15 inch turbines. Normally on the street I put my pony rims on which are equipped with Nitto drag radials.

I think the MT ET streets would last about 4,000 - 6,000 miles of street strip use depending on what kind of a burnout you do.

After trying the ET streets I will never try anything else.
