Best drag radials what are you running?
 
Gonna go with 17x10.5" wheels on my 1LE. 486hp 435tq at the wheels NA. Not sure what drag radials to run. I have BMR trailing arms and bushings as well as subframe bushings. Have the bug to do some drag racing until my chevelle is finished. What are you guys running.

The Mickey Thompson S/S hooks better than the the NT05R, the NT05R lasts quite a bit longer. FWIW I have NT05Rs on a very similar power level and they work pretty good on the street, without being heated up, and at 30psi. For sub 500HP at 18psi and warmed up I think they'll do pretty decent at the track.

Had the nt05r and didn’t care for them. Tried out the m&h this time and they are ok. I’ll be switching up to MT or Hoosiers next to try them out. So far my only recommendation is same as above, don’t go for nt05r unless you don’t plan to track it and want something for street.

Mickey Thompson ET street R, are pretty good!

Mickey Thompson ET street R are pretty good, I like how they hook up. I don't drive them on the road much, mostly just use them at the track.

I have MT Street R on rep 18’s and Street S/S on stock ZL1.

Like them both but prefer the dig from Street R.

Nitto 555R hooks really good even with no prep. I might try the M/T next set.

When all motor ET streets are night and day over Nittos. I can Punch it from dead stop and it wont spin it feels like at the track almost with them vs the Nittos still spin like a street tire almost. Now that im Turbo they still hook hard with a tad spin. ET street is the tire to have IMO.
