If you want more traction I would either do the 325 mickeys or the 390 M&H if you can squeeze a 30" tire under it, many have done it before. The 325 m&H are not going to be as sticky as the 325 mickeys if that is what you were asking though, but the 390 m&H should outperform both.

I ran both brands DR on my 16s, about the same size. 28x9x16 and the M&H have a lot better street traction, Im going to get them next year again over MT for my street wheels

i agree. ive run 275/40/17 mickeys and 275/50/17 M&H's and the M&H's hook alot better on the street than the mickeys did even with more power. dont expect much life outta them though, they wear pretty damn quick

run slicks at the track so cant comment much there
