Default Hoosier DR 325/50's..who's running 'em?

Who's running these fat *** rubbers on their cars? Any difference in weight and traction between these and MT's drag radials in the same size? Any info is appreciated. Thanks.

I am running the 325/60/15 and love them as for comparison i cannot as I have only ran the 275 MT and that wasn't enough to support the nitrous off the line.

I had them on my car, loved them! I switched to ET Streets (bias plys) and the car has slowed down. Its bogging too hard now but out of a 6 speed with stock shocks I was cutting 1.7 60fts sidestepping the clutch at 6000 with the 325s! I know its got more in it. Im actually getting ready to put the Hoosiers back on. They are a lot more streetable and stable at high speeds. They dont last as long as the MT radials but they hook harder.

i agree. the hoosiers do work a bit better than the m/t's but dont last as long.
also the hoosiers have a softer sidewall than the MT
