I purchased when I was unable to get traction on the Nitto DRs when the temps were 55* and below.

I recently added MT Tubes as that's how the tires were designed to run and it dramatically improved the top end stability.

These are excellent drag tires for the MM and are mounted on readily available Mustang wheels.

I marked the sidewalls w/ a grease pen and one slipped 1/4". That one will go on the other side to slipp it back.

I can highly recc then for drag racing when used w/ MT Tubes.:)

Do not forget to use screws. They also store easily in the truck as bonus.

Marc do you mean screws thru the rim to keep the tires from spinning on the rim?

Yes, that's right John

Any member out there have the new MT ET Street Radials in 305x45x18 size (#3786R) that can share a review of their performance with us. I would really like to hear a review of these tires before I switch from Nittos to the MT ET Street Radials.

Thanks,

Glenn :burnout:

I just bought a new pair this afternoon at Summit racing.
$335 pair out the door. I have a special account discount.

I also have screws, on the inside, and quite few more than what I see posted.

At exactly 28" tall...the fit and finish is near stock.

Just say NO to short rear tire setups! :D
