Mickey Thompson ET Street SS Review

DOT Approved

All Mickey Thompson ET Street SS is a tubeless DOT drag radial approved for street usage. While this is a given for all tires sold in the US, DOT approval also means that these tires meet the marking and performance requirements required on the racetrack. The ET Street SS drag radial tire was developed with drag racers in mind who are looking for unbeatable performance at the drag strip while being safe for good weather street driving. 

Drive-to-track-and-back

The ET Street SS are designed for versatility between track and street, without missing a beat when racing. Drivers can have their cake and eat it too when it comes to track performance and street use. Since the ET Street SS is a dual-purpose competition drag radial, they have reduced tread depth and a much softer tread compound for optimal performance in dry weather. 

Superior Traction With Mickey Thompson’s R2 Compound

All Mickey Thompson ET Street SS’ are constructed with MT’s proven R2 tire compound. The R2 compound is the same compound used on the quickest drag radials on the planet. This ensures superior traction at the track with little to no burnout.  

Improved Tread Design

The ET Street SS is an updated and more street friendly hybrid of the Mickey Thompson ET Street Radial and ET Street Radial 2.  The ET Street SS is designed using the equivalent tread void as the ET Street Radial 2, which is redistributed for improved hydroplane resistance if you get caught in the rain. This is all done while providing plenty of tread contact making for excellent dry traction.
