To be legal you need to be speed and load rated, MT ET street radials have no load rating on the side wall.

Regardless of brand, DOT approval is gained in the USA and this is what speed, load and wear ratings the manufacturers use as the DOT is a private testing company.
Most tyres are speed and load rated which is required, but not the mickeys.

No one does care, and I also do consider E85 to be pump fuel, especially with the pending release of 200 E85 pumps australia wide by 2011. People are just trying to get an idea of what he used for their own interest, he didn't say he was the fastest pump fuel VL he said he was the fastest on radials
