Mickey Thompson Street Comp Tires - Page 5 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Put these on in the rear about a week ago.
Handling is good. They arent really quiet, but they aren't loud either.
I launched pretty good a few times (on a backroad of course!) and so far i haven't had any traction issues (cammed V8).

Still waiting to see how they handle wet, but it hasn't rained in houston for a lil while.

I like them alot better than the pzeros, and I'd say they handle better than my last set of Invos. I'm sold on em so far. As soon as my front two Invos wear down a little more, I'll have the comps on all four corners.

for the street comps, you can go to this link, select a tire size, and it will show you the different places you can get them from.

I personally got them from summit

Thats it?No more talk about these tires?...did they turn out to be bad tires? Looking at buying a set this week....need some feedback.

StephenS_84 · 10-02-2012, 02:06 AM

Well they seem to be good tires.

Jimmy Superfly · 10-02-2012, 02:24 AM

I will probably be picking up a set in the spring along with my new wheels. I hope they have wider sizes available by that point.

NateSS · 10-02-2012, 11:46 AM

It rained here in Houston this weekend, so i got a chance to test them out on wet roads. They did just fine.

The car was very controllable and handling was decent, given the rainy conditions.

Better ditch that 5th Gen Camaro then.... It's not American Made, unless you mean North American.

got a pair on my rear wheels right now (still got a good bit of life in my pzeros for fronts). with about 300-500 miles on them so far I will have to say I like them. No annoying tire noise, they look great on the car... almost like a drag radial. BUT they grip about as good as my pzeros did when it comes to straight line take off.

Since TireRack doesn't carry Mickey Thompson...

or use Google shopping (avg. is $201 & $219)

I may need to become a sponsor...

Coyotekiller · 10-10-2012, 10:45 PM

I'll be giving these a try soon. Thanks for the links Kahdir.

In related news, guy I know on here from another forum also runs the cooper RS3s. He recommended them to me previously so this pretty much seals the deal. I'll be buying these ASAP.

Pro Stock John · 10-10-2012, 11:14 PM

Price ain't bad, will keep 'em in mind.

texas_boss · 11-13-2012, 02:39 PM
