I recently purchased a set of lightly used Mickey Thompson ET Drag bias ply slicks in 32x14-15 for my half ton rcsb 12v. I have not ran them yet due to needing to purchase wheels, tubes, screws, ect. Now that M/T is offering taller radials in 31.25", 32", and 33" heights in the "pro drag radial" and "pro bracket radial" models I'm starting to wonder if I should stick with radials. I have only made 2 passes at the track with this truck which was on "pro drag radials" (that I was borrowing off my fathers trans am) in 29.5x10.5-15s. The truck did dead hook the second pass with a 10-15 psi launch but the track was prepped extensively. This led to a 1.66 60' and a time of 11.40 at 119.28 mph. On the street or if track isn't prepped as good (like my first pass) traction is limited on the 29.5 radials. So I know taller is the answer just wondering with all the development in radials if I should stick with them.
