Default mickey thompson street comp tires

Anyone used these? They have them in my size I need 275 45 20. Truck is awd and I really don't wanna run 4 dr's. For the price and specs these are looking like the route I'm gonna go. Can't find much as far as reviews online so I figured I'd ask. Any positive or negative feedback on them?

They are a good looking tire. Tread design reminds me of a Pilot Sport PS2. For a 300 treadwear they are a bargain. Only other comparable tire at that tread rating and price point in the needed size that I am aware of would be the Bridgestone Dueler HP Sport. If MT made them in a 295/45/18 I would try them.

Thats actually the other tire I was looking at. Those are about 25 more dollars each which isn't a big deal. I think I am going to try the Mikey Thompson's though.

I put a set on my wifes '12 Mustang GT. They are better than the Pirelli P Zero that are factory, but the BFG RE 11's were far better. When the road is hot, they are great. But when the air temp drops below 75, forget it. Can't say how they will perform on your truck. I run the Nitto 420 265/50/20 on my truck, and when I hit it, the *** likes to get lose.

Yeah I had the bridgestones on the cts-v, and loved them. Hmmm, might have to go with Bridgestone again.

Sorry to thread jack but..........

I like the looks of the Mickeys but they don't come in 16"? I also like the Bridgestone's but seems like all the 16" version are 25.6" tall? What is a good tire that comes in a 16" size that is 28" tall? Will I need to go to 17" and run the Mickeys? Is that the best bet?
