Mickey Thompson has a 17" ET Street Bias Ply now

Just saw that mickey thompson has a 17" ET Street bias ply now. It's pretty wide - 26/11.5, so I doubt it'll be useful to anyone here but if anyone wants a drag tire but has a BBK or whatever, it's the only option I know of for a bias ply tire. You could probably squeeze it onto a 9" rim I'd be willing to bet.

i was all excited until i saw 11.5, still a good option for someone who wants a sticky tire but cant fit 15's or 16's

this is bias ply construction as opposed to radial construction - bias ply is how slicks are constructed. you wouldn't want to drive on these every day on the street. the ET Street radials you can (as long as you stay out of heavy rain).
