I never could find one... and remember, it needs to have a good speed rating. I am hitting 135-140 mph before I shut down

Just out of curiosity, what do you plan on doing with 5" street tires that you could not do with the M&H's ??

FYI, they offer two different styles in a 17. And they are both D.O.T. certified.

True...he can go with the radial version, they are more streetworthy (better in the rain etc.) and they will also last much longer.

Those are the ones.

Also look into the Hoosier 17" skinnies:
