Mickey Thompson ET Street S/S
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
- Summer weather traction
- High speed controllability
- High speed performance
OVERVIEW
The Mickey Thompson ET Street S/S is a high performance summer tire manufactured for racing vehicles. This model is a DOT approved racing tire.
The tire promotes great summer traction. The directional tread design and the durable R-compound work together to increase the dry and wet weather road gripping ability. The tread's groove placement and enlarged surface contact area heighten the number of biting edges gripping the road surface while the tires are in motion. The racing-compound, on the other hand, actively prevents heat build-up along the tread area, keeping the tire cool during the drive. The two circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning. They disperse water from below the footprint and maintain the surface contact to improve the wet traction. This combination guarantees a safer summer weather performance.
The tread design also boosts the model's high speed controllability. The tread's enlarged surface contact area and optimal tread design increase the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. In this manner, the steering becomes faster and more precise in its response to the driver's commands, while the structure is stabilized against the driving pressure affecting the model. As a result, the driver has full control over the vehicle throughout its high speed performance, ensuring high driving safety levels.
The Mickey Thompson ET Street S/S allows the tire to securely perform at high speeds. The reinforced radial construction maintains the ideal tire shape under the high speed driving pressure affecting the model. The R-compound, on the other hand, increases the tire's heat- and burnout-resistance. It optimizes the pressure distribution along the tread area to minimize the pressure affecting the model during its performance. As a result, the tire is able to securely perform at its best high speed capability and power.
