Mickey Thompson Street Comp. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: Summer weather traction; Enhanced controllability; High speed performance; . OVERVIEW: The Mickey Thompson Street Comp is a high performance summer tire manufactured for passenger vehicles.The tire promotes great summer weather traction. The asymmetric tread design and the summer compound work together to increase the dry and wet weather grip on the road surface. The tread elements manage to boost the number of biting edges gripping the road surface in dry conditions, while the compound actively prevents heat build-up along the tread area. The circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water from below the footprint. This allows the tire to enhance the summer weather performing capability and driving safety.The ideal tread design upgrades the controllability. The tread's two solid continuous center ribs maintain the tire's surface contact throughout its performance. This allows the tire to increase the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. The steering, as a result, is faster and more precise in its response, while the structural stability is guaranteed during its performance. The shoulder tread block placement provides additional biting edges that grip the road surface during cornering. The angled lateral grooves create friction between the tire and the road surface at the moment of braking. This significantly shortens the braking distance, guaranteeing a secure performing ability and power.The Street Comp enhanced its high speed durability as well. The asymmetric read design and the heat-resistant compound improve its traction and ease the driving pressure off the tire. This minimizes the effect high speed pressure has on the tire, maintaining its ideal tire shape during the drive. In this manner, the tire is capable of securely performing at its best high speed capability at all times, guaranteeing secure driving comfort levels. Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
