Default Got my M&H 275/50/17's today!

They are really soft, and seem like they will hook up, I guess time will tell. I'm getting them mounted tomorrow and pretty excited to see how the 28" tire willl look on the car. Here are some pics comparing them to my wore out 275/40/17 et streets.

They look a little narrower than the MT, can you get a good side by side pic with both mounted if possible. I currently run M&H 275 45 18 on the caddy and they hook like crazy, so i know they work. I need some 17's for the cobra, it currently has 275 40 17 MT but i need a taller tire so that is why i ask. thanks

ooooooooooooooooo well good for you.

Once you get them mounted theyll "shorten" a bit. I set a 28in unmounted tires next to my wheel well and it filled the entire thing. Youve seen what they look like on the car.

How about you christen them at sikeston with my friday, you dont have to get crazy with it

They look great on the car, they are a tad bit narrower than the M/T's but they are still wider than the wheel, so the tire would likely hit a curb before the wheel would. I definatly need some adjustable LCAs though because they are extremly close to the bumper

I still havent tryed them out yet to see how well they hook, ill probably wait until after the lsx shootout though. I would hate to bust the 10 bolt and not make it there by just messing arround.
