Practically slicks are not slicks.I have a set of slicks and I do assure you that they are a totally different tyre.

I would destroy your tyres with my wagon.I would not get traction.This means I have more torque than you or more dead weight to get off the line.

With slicks my 60 footer would be 1.8 not 2.068.

Whatever is said the wagon did it..

AAhhh thats why.My car weighs 1720 kgs!! If you want to borrow my et streets you are welcome but please give me little notice.
Also its the first time out with a working lsd ..so maybe why the car had no traction issues for the first time ever!! Maybe would have been fine on street tyres?

at the end of the day they are a radial dot tyre, so there is no argument, they are a street tyre! they are available for anyone to buy and are 100% street legal, i hate it when people say they run "real street tyres", guess what et street's are "real street tyres".

the hankooks that are dot approved are actually rags (crossply) and therefore they are a slick with grooves, and then yes i would agree they are not really in the same class, but the et's are still a radial steel belted tyre just with a softer compond rubber.
