Default m&h 235/60/15 = the best money spent so far

this **** is bananas, b-a-n-a-n-a-s

Wow, I don't know what else to say about these tires? I went from no traction on street tires to pretty much traction in 2nd, 3rd and 4th. If anyone needs traction, get these tires!!! Unbelievable hook, so if you want to win some races, go get em

nice set of tires.... I was looking at those also. Do they come in 50series? and maybe like 225 width? Can you get pictures of how it looks like in the front view and the radial?

Shows what they come with. I took it off my car today as I'm only gonna drive on them here and there when I want to race. Next time they are on I will take more front pics, etc.

looks killer, its hard to find a good shot of the 235's on the EF chassis. here comes the obvious question... what did you have to do to get them to fit? what suspension are you running?

i ran these on the street for 2 days. I was only making 360whp and 310wtq and 1st and 2nd gear was wheel spin.. But 2nd gear punch they hooked pretty damn good. 3rd gear no problem just hoks and goes... But 1st gear is still pointless... I drove them in the wet and didn't really have problems.

yep.... dot approved bias ply tires

What horsepower levels could these tires prove to be too much?

My friend is about to go get tuned...he should be anywere between 280whp and 330whp...would these tires be too much for that power level?

Your friend would be better off with drag radials.

These would prove to be more useful for those running 350+ on the streets.

Life sucks for me at 500whp daily driven.

i used the MT drag radials, and I could hook in 3rd at around 500whp.

I heard the MH's are just as good, if not better

I'll probably be getting a set in the late fall/spring.

By the way, your car looks naked with no moldings on it.

So 19sec beast you think that if you are running lower than say 350whp these tires would be useless on the street or overkill? Im running about 330whp on 10psi and have been really thinking about getting a pair of these tires.

Well, I'm not sure how much you DD the car, or how much tread is on the M&H's.

I'd imagine, for sub 350whp, I'd go with BFG DR's and save some $$. They'll stick pretty nicely.

Do drag radials actually work that much better on the street then reg. street tires? Since the street isn't smooth like the track? Seems like the road would tear the tires up? Is that not true?

the reason why I used these tires instead of drag radials is because my friend has ~400whp and he roasts his bfgoodrich g-forces.
