Default M/T ET Street DR!!!!

I put the new M/T DRs...WOW these thigs are very SOFT
I think they may be softer compund the the ET streets I use to have...

Any ways I do think they hook much HARDER than the nittos that where on the car....

These tires drive great also.cant even tell they are back ther..

I have had BFG DRs.Nittos and now these new M/Ts....I like the BFGs much more than the nittos and I think I will like these even more that the BFGs

I will let you know how they do on the track tomorrow

From what I've read about them... they do have a softer compound than the ET Streets. What size did you go with and where did you get them from? I'm in need of a new set of tires for the back (275/40/17) and can't decide between the Nitto's/BFG's/M/T's I'm interested in how long they hold up with average street use, the car won't see the track over the winter of course but it'd be nice to have a little extra grip when I need it.

I didn't even realize that M/T had came out with a DR until a week or so ago... The tread pattern looks pretty sweet
