Randy is talking about the radials. I used to pull low 1.7 60's consistently with no spinning on 26x11.50's. After they were done I bought the 26x10.50's and they don't work as good as the wider ones. I run about 12-15psi in both. To answer the question, I have no luck on the street either with my et streets. I'm glad NPR is less than 10 min. away!

I haven't tried mine on the street yet, but I can spin them at the track with anything over a 1000rpm launch. They are hooking pretty good at 1000rpm, but I did start experiencing wheel hop for the first time the last time I was at the track. I was running 12psi. I'm hoping the caltracs will take care of the wheel hop for me, and I'm going to get them on and try them on the street one day. I do have a sprayer full of vht to help out on the street runs. I went lower than 12psi one time down the track(against goshawk23), and I'm glad I gave him the hit, because I was spending a good bit of time in and around his lane further down. I won't ever run them that low again!!!

Depending on track prep, I can usually stick my 26x11.50 on motor but have yet to stick them spraying out of the hole since my h/c swap and I have tried at three different tracks. Just this past sat I was even spinning them slightly on motor at 16psi. I marked them time before last and noticed when I took them off sat, the pass side had spun about an inch on the rim. This particular trip I was running low 1.9x on motor and high 1.7x on spray.
Before the h/c I pulled a best 60' of 1.62 onthe spray at NPR on 26x10.50s. I would like to try my current setup over there to see what it will do on a well prepped track.
As for hooking on the street... Mine never have. Anything under 25psi and it just isnt fun to drive at all. I just prefer not to chase my own *** around on the street so I usually put mine on/take them off at teh track. Not to mention how bad they get tore up by road debris onthe street.
