MT Streets on the Highway?

It says on the Mickey Thompson website... That you should not use the Et streets on the Highway.

I have used the M and H Racemasters in the past and they were a little unstable on acceleration but at constant speed they were fine. Also had about 20 psi in them.

Would the MT ET streets be about the same on the highway as the M and H's?

The racetrack here is 20 mins away. And to boot 2400 ft above sea level.

You would be much better off picking up another pair of wheels and mounting the M&Ts on those. Much safer. Just swap them out at the strip.

You CAN drive ET Streets on the road. Pump them up to around 25-30 psi. Don't drive near anything wet though. Also I wouldn't recommend anything more that a 30-45 min drive with them. They just feel wierd in the turns and at higher sustained speeds

I would not suggest it. If you hit the slightest puddle, your gone. My friend wrecked going 20mph when he hit water. And yes, they are very unstable.
