Mickey Thompson ET Street Life?
About how long do they last on a DD? 10K miles? 20K miles? How are they in the rain? Thanks, Bradley

Re: Mickey Thompson ET Street Life?
I wouldnt expect them to live long at all on a daily driver. Not only that they are horrible in the rain. It only took me once to figure that out. I wouldnt not use them for a daily driver or even try to use them when its wet.

Re: Mickey Thompson ET Street Life?
plan on a set every year...I run mine 90% of the time ( unless hauling a load) as far as the rain you need a light foot...the worse part is if you have radials on the front they handle pretty crappy..the Kool factor is nuts and if you buy them off Craigslist for 100 or so who cares..I plan to buy the new radials that are that wide as soon as I can ching up or a run out of deals...lol

Re: Mickey Thompson ET Street Life?
ET streets on a DD in the rain is not a good combo. I have never used ET streets, but I've heard horror stories of driving tires like them in the rain. Definitely not recommended. Even the MT street radials aren't the best in the rain.

Re: Mickey Thompson ET Street Life?
I ran Goodyear Eagle drag radials all summer and fall last year! Worked great but you will have to replace them every year! Mine is worn out and maybe has a couple more burn outs and runs on them and thats it! Yes you will have to run a very very light foot in the wet!
