Here's a quote from '09 that a M/T rep posted on another forum when they asked the same question. I came across it while I was doing research for my rear tire choice. I just placed my order for 305/35/18 M/T ET Street II's this afternoon 
The only difference is the sizing and tread pattern. The contructions and compound are the same.
We added some pattern to tire on the sizes that may be used on late model vehicles that see more street time and/or would use OE wheels. That being said, whenever you take away section height (the difference between the O.D. of the tire and rim diameter), there is less "give" in the tire. This makes it rely on the compound and tread width even more.
There have been some great ET's run on both.
Thanks for the question.
