Can anyone give me some feedback on these as some members have been running them since last year. Are these manufactured domestic, europe or china?

how is the steering response, handling, traction, noise and ride

anyone do a comparo with these and Nitto, Pilot Super Sports or P Zeros?

Their honest one of the best bang for the buck tires out there for under 1k, they grip summer performance based I can compare to the Nitto Invo tires.

Ive done a number of setups for member sand they have loved the rubber choice.

Their created by Cooper tires.

They take a while to heat up and give you grip.

They slip and slide all over the place until they've warmed up. Even on hot days.

I got them in a wheel and tire package, if I had the choice to buy them separately I would not. I slide all over the place. They do look nice though

I actually just got in 6 sets of Mickeys for clients, 2 of which are for return members just wanting new rubber, for the price you cant go wrong with them.

Do the MT Street Comps have less traction than the stock Pirelli tires?

I went from stock pirellis to 305/35-20 MT Street Comps. My car is essentially stock, just a set of roush axlebacks.

Without spinning them first to build heat, my car WILL NOT hook in 1st from any speed, and usually won't hook until the top of 2nd around 50mph. This is in Texas spring where pavement is optimal temperature around 90*F. Really, really annoying but they are better than the stock pirellis. Wet traction is extremely good, and I got 20k miles out of them spinning them a lot. Overall a great DD tire, but know that you won't be able to romp on it unplanned and have traction at all.

Curious if Nitto Drag radials act the same way...:confused:

I had MT street comps for about 1000 miles. If your car is around my power level, run from these tires! WOT with these tires was terrifying. I was taking 3rd gear logs and even at 115mph, it was spinning. These tires might be good for DD on a NA mustang but not a SC Mustang. I swapped for NT555Rs as my DD rears.
