Default Micky thompson street radial.

I was wondering if anybody has ever run these on the street with an EK? The size I am looking at is P255/50R16 or maybe a 235/60R15. They both are just under 26 inches tall, and 9 to 9.7 inches wide.

MT recomends the raidials for automatics and the bias ply for manules.i have the bias ply on my daily driver but its not an EK.they hook realy good and they last pretty long .just dont go burning out on them unless your at the track and atcualy racing.

I dont see how or why this would matter...but I wouldn't use the et street bias ply's on the street simply cause they have a thin sidewall, almost like driving with a slick aired up---probably not the best thing for a street car. I have the 235/60/15's radials on my EG. Had to trim the bumper and the coilovers are up pretty far but they fit no problem. BTW the 235's are 8" wide, not sure on the width of the 16's your asking about.
