Can you tell me whether the plans (rumors) to release an 18\" version of
the ET Street Radials will ever come true? It\'s time to get ready for
the spring season soon, and if you\'re not going to have one in
production, then it will be time for another year of the Nitto 555R.

Lighting enthusiasts everywhere want to know.

Thanks,
Kevin Baldwin

Kevin, Fuck Yeah!!!!!

I hope they make a low profile set so I can throw them on the back of my Bra.

Oh...that's some good news! I should visit the Lightning section more often! As long as I see a 18x10.5" version, I'm happy.

good to hear. Thanks for the info kevin! :headbang: :burnout:

 

[Flyn]

Good info. :biggthump

Anyone heard anything about wider 17" M/Ts? Maybe 315s?

 

[ILLINI-SVT]

Hey guys, get on their website and send them requests for info. I know the Lightning people keep checking every once in a while, but they probably don't get enough requests to make them step up production.

They need to know that there is a market out there for the product before they'll start producing it.

I was just wondering about the 18\" drag radials. I had heard a rumor on
one of my local Mustang forums that Mickey Thompson was considering
making an 18 version of it\'s GREAT drag radial. I had them on my 2003
Cobra with the stock 17\" wheels and now I have 18x10.5\" wheels and
I\'d LOVE to get a set for my new rear wheels. BFG\'s and Nittos are
great, but Mickey Thompson make the best drag radial. Period.
