Mickey Thompson or M&H 345/35/18?
Anyone have any feedback on Mickey Thompson or M&H 345/35/18 ET Street Radial hooking Up ? Good, Bad, sticky or not?

I have a set of MT ET streets on mine 315/30/R18 and they hook, in fact ask Rplaster he took the wheels off of mine and tried it on his blower car and they made a big difference over his drag radial I was told.
When I had the 100 shot of nitrous I was 517RWHP and 541 lbs of torque (Mustang Dyno) and I could hook in first gear on the N20 no problem once I cleaned the tires off a bit

I know this is slightly old but I was curious as to this too. Right now, I'm running the BFG Drag Radials (345-30-18) and I'm thinking of switching to the MT 345-35-18's. How much of a different size are they and how do they compare performance?

Still waiting for feedback on this thread. I would prefer using one brand all around, however availability may be my decision maker.
My 1st choice is tire sizes:
Front: 265/40/18 - MT
Rear: P345/35/18 - MT or MH
Front:
MT has a 265/40/18 (preferable front)
M&H has a 275/45/18 (to wide and tall for me)
Rear:
All the way 345/35/18, (wish a 355 or 365 in 35/18 size were available) MT or M&H, price and availability are decision makers.

When I first mini-tubbed my car I had 345/35/18 Pilot Sports (now discontinued) and those things were the perfect all around tire tire. Now I'm just witing till my M/T ET streets are gone to try the M/H 345's or hopefully the M/T

From a 275/17 M/T drag radial to a 295/18 BFG drag radial the cornering department was the same, absolute crap But straight line was always good.
