Default Cheapest place to order MT radials from?

Looking to buy some new 325's, or possibly the 295's. Every place I'm looking is going to be close to $500 shipped for a set. ***** ridiculous. So does anywhere have better deals than that?

I was checking them out on Jegs earlier today, and saw MT has a $50.00 mail in rebate on a set of 2 drag radials right now.

Id rather pay more from a race shop, that will check them. Some of the cheaper places will say there matched but then 3/4" rollout difference is ok to them. the radials are alot better, but I've been stuck with ETdrags they were 89" and 90" getting them form some place cheap.


you know you can get them too at alot of races. MT have a rig that goes to ton of races. not just NHRA, NMCA but some bigger heads up stuff. The will have it full or tires, And will bring you a size if they dont normally keep it. or tubes, and there wheels, anything they sell. No shipping. They sell them cheap to, not under the suggested retail or any WD type accounts they will use. But they will mount an balance them right there.
I think they take cards in the rig, unless the computer is down. And you will have to pay sales tax for that state. But you save the 30-50$ getting them mounted and balanced. And you know its a great set,and mounted buy the best you could have do it. And give you any help and tips and running them.
No damage or cuts from shipping, no old *** tires sitting around for 8months. Lube shop ******* up your race rims. Check that out, might be a race close to you worth the 2-4 hour drive.

I'm picking up a set of 275/60's with a little more than half tread for $225. After I posted this up I seen some on a local Facebook page for sale. My girlfriend works at a Bridgestone dealer. So no charge on that end. Hope the 275's hook on the street as good as the 325's do.

There is a vendor on ebay who sells the 275 50 15 for $209 shipped each. Last time I bought some I sadly could not find a sponsor on here who sold them for similar prices.
