Guest Guests Posted 20/11/07 05:56 AM Share Posted 20/11/07 05:56 AM I have a few sets of the new MT ET street's coming shortly if you want a set, 3o5x18x3o or 18x345x3o. They should hold a bit more power than those, failing that all the big brands make good quality 295/3o5 rubber. When it comes to tires you pay for quality.
