Mt Radials are DOT approved, I'm not sure if you are mixing up ET streets with street radials, ET Streets are basically a rag slick with 3 grooves in them, but the MT radial is widely regarded as a street tyre, one of my staff Gav is on his 2nd set in a row on his daily driven turbo VT SS. Whether someone chooses to do it on a traditional street tyre instead of a Mt Radial is their choice I guess

21-09-10, 22:59 GMT+10#48 Congrats again !! But there is a question that I think a few of us would like to know,
Other than 255 et's.. 98 or e85 or other?
Just a damn fast time and even more impressive out of a 35/40
0 likes
21-09-10, 23:45 GMT+10#49 So would this be best time thus far with a 35/40?

Andy (OVL087) went 10.0 on 235/60R15 MT ET street radial, then put the slicks on and went 9.95
That wasnt on pump. He always runs C16 at the track. He has a girly 17 psi tune for the pump/street tune.

Judging by the fact the question has been asked several times with no answer, I highly doubt it. In fact I know for 100% certainty that if this thing has a GT35 that the power level simply isn't possible on 98, which is why ollies car runs E85, and even then with 30psi and E85 only run 133mph and its a featherweight.
Not taking anything away from the effort, don't take the negative from all the positive, 9's on radials driven home is a feat few have ever achieved regardless of fuel

Actually, M/T ET Streets are a bias ply drag slick with a few grooves in them and are illegal to use on the street, whereas M/T ET Street Radials are radial tyres and legal to use on the street.

DOT approval is gained in the USA and is what all Australian tyres run off, there's no such thing as Australian DOT approved tyres as they're approval is in America.

To be legal you need to be speed and load rated, MT ET street radials have no load rating on the side wall.

Yeah, I was just checking that
Just because it is "DOT" approved doesn't make it legal in Aus.
