New Tires = Sexy Time

325/45/17 M&H drag radials. They look to be a tiny bit narrower than my Nittos were but, these things have a hell of a lot more sidewall.

Bad lighting but, you can see the width on the right side.

Niiice, those I will be purchasing a pair soon.

 

But why such a sticky tire for you now Hal?

 

I still plan to run the car sometimes, I'd like to hook when I do. It was either these or another set of Nittos and I really don't want those again.

just wondering why you didn't go with some M&T ET Street DR's? although those M&H's look like a better tread pattern for rain.

 

+1, MT ET street DRs FTW. Owned two sets myself and they dead hook. On my mustang i ran them for 6 months rain/sunshine and had no issues. They obviously hydroplane easier than an all season, but for what they are they did great. Nittos FTL.

more side wall is a larger foot print :)

 

not only that, but watch dig cars...even the slow ones...watch the side walls.

 

we used to video our cars leaving... one to watch wheel spin, but to also watch how the sidewall's react. i always found, the more sideway you have, the better the car hooks off the brake. thats why so many guys run the tallest tire they can in the 10.5W class's. and if you look at m/t thread width i think the 31" tall and 33" 10.5w's have less width. compared to the 29"
