Just talked to Tom, the person who is in charge over at M&H. They have sent out a few sizes to be beta tested but nothing is out right now. The 350/45R15 (29.5" tall) will be ready to ship next week. The P275/60R15 will come out in a few weeks. THe other sizes listed should be coming in a few months. They should last around 5K on the streets and handle as well as the BFG's in the rain. They are 5 lbs LIGHTER then the BFG and Nitto DR and he says they should hook MUCH better due to their compound. For me, he recommended the muscle car drag race tire. EH asid it will hook better than the DR, it will corner OK, should last almost as long, and should handle a little better in the rain. I think I may order a set...

m&h racemasters are the bomb! i borrowed a set of et-streets from one friend and a set of m&h racemasters from another. the et-streets i cut mid to low 1.7-60 foots easy. m&h i cut low 1.6's easy and even cut a 1.59 best -60 foot with my 01 head and camed m6. the tire i used was the 305/40/16,and they were 5 years old.i also never got the m&h tires hot enough to see smoke,and they still hooked like super glue!

I went 1.51 on 26x12.5x15 ET Streets.

I have talked to the MH folks, they are interesting, I am hoping to see some at the track this year.

I had a very used set of those I-sun, and I went 1.62's on them and I bet they were five years old. I hope some of you buy some MH's so we can look at your results.

Cool!

Another drag radial

12secondv6

I was thinking though.....


I run a 255 50 16 BF DRAG radial tire which has a tire height of 26.04 inches.

If I get the 265 60 16 mickey thompson drag radial then my tire height will be 28.52?!?!?!?!


Damn!

2.5 inches taller???

Those suckers are HUGE!!!

Hey PSJ - You used the Muscle Car Drag Tire? If so, what did you think? My builder wants me to get a set of ET Streets to use all the time but I was thinking these M&H tires would be a great alternative. They may be a little less sticky then the ET Streets but they seem like they may have a bit more street manners... Any thoughts? I may just get a pair and try them out...

invis-sun. i used et-streets and m&h's,i feel et streets are crap.i used the m&h muscle car drag tire 305/40/16 and like i said they were 5 years wornout old,and my car still pulled the front tires off the dround.for racing the m&h is a better tire.

I've 60 ft'd great on a lot of different tires...

So in the end, MH drag tires vs ET Streets, they drive about the same, which is to say like crap, rolling around on bias plys in back is not like having some thin sidewall radials in back.

I run BFG & Nitto's on my vette. Do they have 275/40/17" in stock or do they even sell this size.
