Had Hoosiers, but they were RoadRace and they sucked.

I got M/T 24.5x9.0 now. haven't turned them yet, but I know they'll hook up. I know a few domestic guys and they will only run M/Ts

MH slicks because they have GREAT customer service and good prices. Oh and there slicks hook pretty well too.

When I ordered a set of 24.5x8.5x13 MH slicks from their online site, they called me back to let me know they are not in stock the very next day, then said they would either refund or ship me a set of 24.5x9.5x13 slicks that were a little bit more expensive at the time for the same price, they were too big for my setup and I just ended up getting 23 inch slicks, now that's some damn good customer service.

---- most other online company's won't even tell you there out of stock and you will be waiting all week without even an email or call...

Hoosier drag slicks are good, as well.

Goforth hit 7.15@105.3 in the 1/8th last night on 24.5X9.0.

I've owned one set of mt 20x8x14 et drags and two sets of m/h 22x8x13's. I will continue to buy tires from m&h because of the customer service. I don't think I'll own another set of mt's because of the excellent experience of dealing with m&h.

23's were oversized for don's power level


still shocked about those slicks. I bought those things back in like 00 used




M&H from what I have seen is just based more towards the import world
