how will they stack up to the new mt-drag radials,please.can't compare radial and bias tires. if it's drag racing the m&h has killed all the et-street and drags i ever tried. i know the m&h will smoke the new mt-radials too.

i love my et drags! 1.27 60' on spray, low 1.3's all day for fun

are these street legal tires? if so i would consider them for the Hot Rod Pump Gas Drags. also let me know about the shootout, if they are acceptable

You mean the Muscle Car tires will kill the MT Drag Radials or the new M&H Drag radials will kill the MT Drag radials? Or both? Thanks

Witch ones are simular to the MT ET Street/Hooser QT Pro? Muscle Car Drag Race Tires or the Cheater slicks? Witch would get the best traction spraying off the line?
My ET Streets are gone and I'm looking for a new set of tires

bain-the m&h cheater slick will hook better then the musclecar drag. the musclecar tires have lots of tread,the cheaters have only two lines and they hook. i have a set of each tires,one for street racing and one for the track. i've had good luck with hooser tires too.

I had a long talk with Tom from m&h about these tires as my 27x10.5 et streets are not getting the job done.He said the difference between the cheeter slicks and the
Muscle car drag tire besides the obvious tread design was a thicker inner rubber linning
on the muscle car drags to make them more air tight when tubeless.This makes them slightly heavier but the tire construction otherwise is the same.Hope this helps in making your decision.He also said both have been run tubeless with out problems but they can't officially recomend that for legal reasons or some such nonsense.

I will be ordering a set of the M.Car Drags for my stock 16" wheels next week.

(305 40 r16 I believe) C Tread. Im going to run them without tubes. They are $170 each. Ill relay my findings when they get here. Im hoping for ET street performance that I can drive daily. Ill probably have to buy a new set 6 months later...but, hey, its just money.

I got the M&H cheater slick with two little lines for tread...They seem to hook good on the street...only did one burn out so far...have to mess around with them some more...

Had a bitch of a time getting them mounted...have rim screw holes in rims, and air leaked out!!! had to use tubes, bead sealer to get them on right!
