Default Mickey Thompson ET Streets

Well EmperorofChicken has convinced me not to go with Faulkens as my tires (even though they will last 10x longer, are all-weather, and cost about 1/2 as much)

He has recommended Mickey Thompson ET Streets, and I seem to like the idea.

However, I can't seem to find them in the size I need/want (225/65/15) Though 60% sidewall would also suffice.

The closest thing I could find was http://store.summitracing.com/partde...p;autoview=sku

..which is a 235/60/15. The wheels I am going to get will be 15x7's. My car is a '66 Coupe, soon-to-be V'8. Eventually I am going to lower the car an inch-no more. I looked for 225's, but could not find them. Two questions...


Does anyone know if they make, or of a place where I can get 225 Mickey Thompson ET Streets?


If the previous is a no-go,




EDIT:I jsut realized that I won't have these ET's on all 4's. But the question remains, will those 235's work in the rear w/ a 1 inch drop? Also,

Would it look completely horrible/be a bad idea if I had some Faulkens similar to these:

In the front of the car? (225's of course)

For that price and size ( minus about $30 ) you can go with the BFG Geforce Sport T/A.. IF you want something good on the front end you sould seriously look in to the BFG's... Look into it!!

I got mine from Discount Tires,, 225's for $73 each.. They make good deals if you go in and talk to them in person..
