Re: MT -ET streets
DOT approved, You have to get MT tubes, which cost around 50. Jegs is getting a new shipment march 15,
I only live 1/2 away from the track so throwing them on in my driveway will save the trouble of doing it there.
Another option is nitto drags, 305/45-18 ,240 from jegs, no tubes needed. p#726-401888
I'd rather stick with the et's. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

Re: MT -ET streets
The tubes allow them to work,The tires arn't steel belted and can't support the truck without tubes. The DOT specs here only call for a 2-3/32 tread depth. (That is not alot) The MT's have lines running with the direction of travel which meet the so called Tread depth.
I certianly don't know alot about installation on the rim but I was told you had to run tubes to support the weight of the vehicle and allow the outer tire flex on acleration.
Somebody chime in if I'm way off.

Re: MT -ET streets
I have MT ET streets on my ext cab truck and have no problem without tubes. They are 28-15-12.5" I do run them at 20psi, which is where the max load specifications are at. I'm not making that much power, but they hook off the line!!!!! Enough to run 1.9x 60' times.
