Anyone run MT Sportsman fronts on the street?
I'm want to know if these will last just as long as the 165/15's VW radials. they cost over twice as much but i like them cause they come in a 26 inch tall size. i think the 165/15 is a 24 1/2 inch tall tire. A nd having 26.7 inch tires in the back it sets off my abs lights on the highway.

A few of my friends have run them, and they don't bulge like the 165s do but you definately don't get as much life from them as a radial. I've seen some replaced after 5,000-6,000 miles!

the sportsman front runners dont last anywhere near as long as the vw fronts. but they are a true 26 inch tall tire. IMO they wear way to fast to daily drive for the price you pay for them. mine are as bald as slicks after 7-8k miles
