Yea, those will fit and you can run them on the street. Only problem with them is they wont last you for more than 5k or so because of the soft compound. Chawkins has been running those exact tires on his beast and some of his stangs for a long time now.

I have one of those in decent condition if anyone wants it.100 bucks plus shipping.The other side is worn to much to sell it.

those are great tires but you need to run them low psi and they will wear out faster that way.

I have found the ultimate tire for our cars.I was going to make a post about it for you guys.

Its the same compound as the mickeys and its in a better size that wont kill top end for people with 18s.

Perfect. But what are the offsets. I found SL 18x9.5 wheels with +33 and +28

Can you post some pics too.

I did go with 265/35-18 and 285/30-18 Hanook EVO12s and had no issues with 9" and 9.5" wheels.

I think I will try going 295/30-18 on my next rear set.
