Who runs with M/T street - radial in drag racing ? (255-50-16)
Who can inform me if in the side of the tire have the name < DRAG > like Nittos 555 ?
im asking about that , because here in Greece prohibit to tell DRAG on the tire ( for street - class ).
Thanks .

 

Really,... That is odd. I dont believe that they say drag on them. I used to have a set of 245/55/13's on a bridgeported fb I used to own and they didnt say drag on them. That was last year though, so I am not sure if the product line for the M/T streets has changed.

Not sure on the MT's but I know the old Nitto's I had and the BFG's say Drag on them.... But I here the new MT drags hook like nothing else out there!

 

O.k guys
but who knows for sure if say < drag > on them ( 255-50-16 ). Its very important for me , because if say < drag > ...i can't run in street class .
Thanks , again .

 

If they do, just get something to rub, scratch or burn the word drag off!
that should do the trick.

I have make that with ...Nittos
They( organization ) ...know me unfotunaly . Our FD is the only one that runs here in street class.
We cant do the same again !

 

Nitto 555 drags say drags on the tire

ET's will not have the word drag on them unless you get the new ET street drags that micky thompson just produced .

 

Your lucky I like you greeks!

I just went to the garage and looked at mine. I have the new M/T ET Street Radials. That is exactly what they say on the sidewall. The word "drag" is not on them, anywhere. They also have a treadwear rating of 0!

They hook hard. I broke the drivers side stub axle in my TII rear end with those tires. Good luck to you!

Τhank you very much Andrew
I hope to kick some Evo *** with these tires.
Thanks again.

 

You will do great. Don't loose your cool. Evos are a bitch to launch. They either smoke the clutch or bog off the line. So take your tike and kick their ***!

THey are supposed to last about 3K miles.... Nittos can get an easy 10K out of them; however the new M/T drag radials are supposed to be even better than ET Streets and are breaking records. They are pretty much the best "street" DOT legal drag radial out there.

After my 245/50/16 Nitto DR's are done (soon) I plan on getting a set of these.

SummitRacing.com has them......
