Been following this thread with interest. I checked out the Mickey Thompson site today to see what I could learn about the ET Street R. Disappointed to learn that the 17" and 18" sizes use the same R2 rubber compound as the ET Street Radial II does. This leads me to believe the only improvement in grip could come from having more surface area (less tread on the tire) on the track, and how much more is unknown at this point. Will be interested in the results of any testing and/or real world numbers.

I ordered my tires from summit a month ago. The shipping date has changed twice. Just got a new shipping date for May 30. I'm not holding my breath.

With my end goal of 470ishRWHP in mind I guess I'll just order the 18's ET II's...I shouldn't have any traction prob's anyways...but darn the R's look nice as whatever I order will be track only tires...I really hate being impatient at times...LOL
Or I could earn some brownie points with the wife and get both...hmmm now what can I do to earn some points.

Unconfuse me please. Are you saying that the ET Street Radial II is being discontinued and being replaced by a new tire named the ET Street S/S? What rubber compound will be used in the S/S tire? Thanks |

I finally got em and took them to track...they hooked so well at 22lbs that the car dead hooked and dropped the front on 3 passes...I'm gonna try a little more air and a little less throttle next time out but from what I've learned very good tire
