Message	Alright so im under the impression that drag radials are pretty much slicks with lines in them, to simply make them street legal, since many people I have talked to have said that. is there absolutely any difference in the two that make a significance difference? and street radials? are these just good gripping tires that are controllable in the rain that give you close to satisfaction as the drag radials? Please don`t flame me just trying to understand the complete difference. For instance these three are under the strip section on mickey thompsons site. et steet radial rec. for sport compact cars et steet radial rec. for domestics Good ole et streets Now can someone explain why one is better than the other? Just trying to familiarize myself with the differences for when I order my tires...thanks a million!
