Default m6 on M&H anyone?

lookin at getting some 27 x 10 15s as it should be the best combo for NA and a 100 shot.

i searched and no one really has commented on if they like them.

most of the posts were from people that havent ever ran the tires just liked. to think they were cool and disc them.

im lookin for real first hand experience.... anyone please anyone that has used them chime in.

If you are talking about M&H racemaster tires my car used to have them and would not hook for anything. This was before I bought it but know many people that saw it race on them and am friends with the past owner. Everyone said it would just spin or haze the tires.

I have M/T ET streets on it now (same size) and the car HOOKS. In cold air, 20ish psi, no burn out on the street I can power brake it at 2300RPM+ on the motor easy (about as much as you can do on the motor) and launch it and dead hook and start to pick the front bumper up a few inches.
Thats with I am sure 500hp on the motor.

Not worried about hooking on the nitrous with them,

Every local racer I have talked to has said the M/T tires are far better then the M&H's. Have known a few people that did the swap and never looked back.

Whats your gearing? 3.89?????

With my TH-400, a 3.73 and a 28 inch tall tire its perfect for me. Its on a 15X8 wheel and the tire is not a 10 inch wide tire.

On the motor the car does not bog at all and hooks all day long.

Does not run out of gear on the bottle either.

Depending on gearing you might be able to get away with a 26 since its a M6 (can't remember what the M6's are geared to).

I am also in the low 500hp range on the motor pretty easy also.

I can honestly say that I doubt you will be happy with the M&H's.

I hear some 6 speed guys are happier with the MT drag radials over the streets.

6 speed and M/T drag radials never works, used them my self. also M/T dont recommend them for a stick car because of the steel billet construction walls that will not absorb the shock causing wheel spin.

M/T streets is what most of the guys run here.
