I just spoke with a rep from Mickey Thompson and he stated a March/April release date. He also stated with the new tread design and approx 6.5/32s tread depth should help those who may get caught in some rain. Not great but an improvement over present design.

Yup, they will definitely be better in the wet than the current tread pattern Thompsons. But they are still an extremely large block DR, so don't expect GS D3 rain performance!

I duno, looks like the same tread pattern with the middle blocked out with a healing brush in Photoshop. I do see what looks like "ET Street" on the side but if it wasn't edited then why does the picture look so funny?

If it isn't, great, it will probably be my next tire. But the two look a little "too" similar to me. Maybe they just looked at Nitto's tire and thought "hey that's a good idea, let's incorporate that into ours"...
