The Street Comp ultra-high performance (UHP) tire from Mickey Thompson is now offered in a super wide 315x35R17 for Ford Mustangs with 17-inch wheels. “The new super wide 17-inch Street Comp is just what Mustang enthusiasts have been asking for,” said Ken Warner, VP of Marketing, Mickey Thompson. “This new size is the perfect choice for the new model Mustang, delivering superior performance and ride comfort along with an incredible appearance that reflects the spirit of this iconic muscle car.” The rim in the picture is model SC-5 black machined wheel.
The Street Comp has a UTQG 300 AA A treadwear rating and a unique tread design for superior performance and responsive handling in both wet and dry conditions, and is now available in 19 popular sizes.
This is a street tire that was designed for performance street cars in daily driving situations, with a design that is intended to maximize both dry and wet traction. The Street Comp UHP also features several elements intended to maximize wear. The asymmetric design of the tread means that on standard fitments the tires can be cross rotated, or changed side to side; which increases tread life, while reducing irregular wear patterns.
The outside tread features large shoulders which help maximize the tire’s cornering ability. The shoulder elements are tied together in pairs to improve traction, and stiffness. The wide circumferential grooves near the center of the tire improves wet traction, and avoid hydroplaning. At the same time the wide center rib improves steering responsiveness.
