Default e/t streets on the street question

i jus put prostar 15 x 3.5 and 15x 8.5 on my car with e/t streets in the back. ok im used to my 18 inch z06's and falkens but one blew out so im daily driving my track wheels and tires til i get new 18's. with the e/t streets im feeling a vibration from take off til 50-55 mph just driving normal. is this normal or is something messed up, its got me worried. also what psi do you guys usually run on the streets with these, it says 44 psi i think, im running 30 psi, thanks in advance

The vibration isn't normal. You might need to balance or re-balance the tires. As far as psi, I would run mine at 25 lbs. I don't think the sidewall says 44. If I'm not mistaken, that would be WAY too much. And a word of advice, stay away from water with those things. If you do get caught in the rain, stay under 35 mph or you're going skiing. Those tires tend to lose air if you're not running tubes. Be sure to keep the psi over 20 or it'll feel real loose because of the thin sidewalls. Trust me. I've got about 10,000 miles of highway driving experience with ET Streets and Hoosier QTP's.
