I'm either getting 295/50-15 & 235/60-15 STs or 26x10-15 & 26x12-15 S/Rs. At this point I expect the Cobra to be on the road a majority of the time, with me starting to dabble with the track in the future. If anyone has strong opinions, I'd be interested! I appreciate all of the input I have received thus far.
As an aside, I went to Discount Tire in Rancho San Diego yesterday to check availability of Mickey Thompsons. They were pretty clueless about MTs ("are you putting them on an ATV?") and recommended I buy Goodyears or Coopers instead. I'll try another vender....
Here's a thread from 2014 that covered the M/T tires and how some compared them to BFGs, Coopers and Dunlop Qualifiers. Mickey Thompson
