My personal experience ... ordered a set of S/Rs (26 x 12/15 and 26 x 10/15) from Summit in 2011. Looks were great on my ERA, but ... they could not be balanced because they were out of round. Returned them to Summit for exchange, thinking maybe this was a fluke. The new set also could not be balanced. You could watch the thing on the balancing machine as the tech hand rotated it and it was out of round by 1/8" or so.

Second set went back to Summit for a refund. No more Mickey S/Rs for me. Needless to say, Summit was not delighted about this, but they stepped up and made Mickey take them back. If you do not intend to track the car, maybe the S/T street tire would do ok for you.

9000 miles in the last year and a half on my MT SR's on my Superformance. No issues with balance, ride or wear. Have done a track day as well, and like the feed back and grip. In spite of the comment above, I would highly recommend them and when the time comes will replace them with another set. Rick
