Default M&H drag radials are the best, even on 17s

If any one wants a 17inch dr that hooks like a slick and is stable as a street tire on the top end this is it.

I have tried them all, full slick on 15s And every drag radial out there.

I have 1000 miles and 7 track passes on my 275 50 17. They still look brand new. I was launching on a t brake and 3psi of boost, deads hooks and was doing constint 1.4 60s.

I highly recomend these.

They have soo many size options and the customer service is great.

This is a boosted 9sec btw, they can handle a lot.

That's great news. I plan on run in these as street tires for my setup. How do they hook on the street from a dig and from a roll. What gear are you running?

325 gear, 3600 stall. I haven't tried anything crazy on the street but punching it at a light they hook great. If i go wot from a stop they will spin if the car is on 20psi but with no burn out id say that's normal.

what kind of power is your car making?

what are you going to run at the track?

Car isn't finished yet, but I think it should be at or above 900rwhp through the 4l80e. I'm still indecided if im going to the run the MT et street pro's or a set of 325/50/15 DRs. Mostly a street car so if the M&H 325/45/17s hook that well on the street I might run their 325/50/15s.

Try the 17s at the track before you buy another set of 15s, you might be surprised that you don't need another set of tires

I have about 900whp, can i t brake it with no warm up on the street? No. But i can hit it at 30mph and it hooks really good. The street always has its limit but these drag radial do very well, if you did a burn out they do Alot better

If these work as well as You say they do I will be buying a pair. Do You think the 26" version will hook just as well? Reason I ask is because I have 2.73 gears, full weight car 80mm turbo, th400 ptc stall. Making 560 hp on a dyno dynamics dyno ,

Well i don't knOw for sure because i haven't tried those. But if you want to use a dr and it has to be that size you will have the best chance with these. Especially at your power level

A 26" tall tire will never hook as well as a 28" tall tire, but if the 28" tall M&H's perform that well, I'm sure same can be said for the 26" tall ones.

I really like my 26" tall Mickey Thompson's, but once I burn them up, I may look at stepping up to a 325 M&H for the rears.
