The Goodyear Eagle SS drag radials have been out for awhile now. If these are the same ones, which they look like they are. Goodyear never advertised them that much though. I remember mounting a set of these back in 2005.

From what I understand they pulled them and have a totally different compound. Alot of tech went into the new design.

All I said was that I wasnt sure I liked the tread design. And it is not just looks even though you assumed that (I guess that means you agree about the looks). But if you look at the grooves they do not look like they channel water away as efficient as the ET', although I am not 100% sure because I have not tested either one. If I am driving down the street one night and it starts raining I want to know that I could still be able to get home kinda quick without sliding the whole time.

Thats funny you say that because last week I got caught in a bad-azz rain storm with my M & H Drag Radials and I was afraid I was gonna wreck the truck. What a ride that was. I will need to test the GY somewhere safe like a parking lot.
