Don't waste your time with et street radials, get the et streets...

I love my ET street radials on motor...it was the nitrous passes that they didn't like the hit of nitrous off the line. I'm sure with more tuning though, they would have hooked. The ET Radials are great tires.

I might actually have a 3.5 wide star up front. I cant remember. But i have been playing with the grinder for the last couple of days and have gotten them to fit no problem without a spacer. The actual caliper has gotten the grinder to it too... Pads have maybe 3500 miles on them... and the stock studs wont pass with the prostars since you have to run a shank lug nut. I have the rule book in front of me on that one. And also got kicked out of the track once because the rears didnt have long enough studs. But i was using a closed shank up front and they didnt ever say a word, but I would rather have it safe for when i do have the wheels up in the air and coming back down on them. I know know though with my ARP 3 inchers upfront and out back that i have about a 1/2 inch sticking out of the open end lugs without any spacers.

What is the correct backspacing for our cars for the 15x8 and 15x10 wheels? I don't want to get some that stick out way far or in for that matter.

I agree with you, i had ET streets and could launch and hook on teh 125 shot. Yet with the et street radials, I couldn't really launch anywhere over 4500 on motor. So i will always recommend the ET Street for someone making a decent amount of power, which he will with the centrifugal he has on the car.

nice venom! thats basically how mine will be looking but with skinnies up front. so i see your running 275/50/15 in the rear. how is the fitment on that? are your pro stars 15x8 or 15x10 in the rear? Ill be going with 15x8, so is the 275/50/15 a size i should be looking into for the rear?
