M/T ET Radials vs. MT Pro Bracket Radials
 
I see that M/T started making radial slicks in 26" and 28" sizes. They have both an ET Drag Radial and a Pro Bracket Radial. Does anyone know the difference in these or have any experience with them?

I ordered the 26 inch et drag radial, they were on backorder for a while. Haven't had a chance to run them yet.....this will be on a Gremlin

I think Fazio got the pro braket radials for his Stang.

I know they are different, can't say how much, but it is great to have a 26 inch radial option!

The compound is harder, stiffer sidewall and they are significantly heavier.
All that aside they are really good tires and Mickey Thompson has added another really nice line. They just have to apply to your application.

Pro Bracket is the harder/stiffer and heavier correct?

yes the bracket radial is stiffer, harder compound and heavier.

If the Mustang proves worthy this weekend I will be ordering a 26" M/T radial set for it.

running the pro brackets on my car. love them so far. they look like a street radial with no grooves. round on the edges. not squared off like a regular slick. 88 mustang l/sa.

I got them because they were offered in 28" and I got out of cutting up my wheel wells. They are 3 lbs heavier than regular stocker 30" radial. 26lbs compared to 23 I believe. Seem to be running great, I do weak burnouts so I hope they last a while. I think they cut my rollout down also because my lights have moved into the teens and 20s this year from the 30s-40s last year. Can't tell you how much they picked me up ET wise because I changed too many things from last year.
