M&h drag radials
Wanting opinions on m&h racemaster drag radials. Wanted to order mt et R but they are 6-8 weeks out so looking into the m&h. How well can they hook around 700whp on the street?
Most importantly will the 325/45r17 fit on a BASE C6?

Perfect 700whp tire for my combo, bought them because the MTs were back ordered, went 1.37 60'.

The M&H is a great tire. I don't think anything going to fully hook from a dig on the street but these are as good or better than anything I've tried yet.
As far as fitting a narrow body I never tried but that are pretty narrow for a 325 so I think they might be ok.

They have hooked up awesome on the street for me and I highly recommend them. I am not 700whp level but 600+ and I could get them to hook from a dig. I can't comment on fitment on a non-Z06/GS car.

You're probably right. I'm running a Nitto NTO5R tire right now and if it isn't warm out, I don't do a burn out and don't reduce the pressure down from 32psi(where I keep them at for street use) then it's spin city until about 40-60MPH depending on what gear I'm in. That was at 600whp. Now I have 2 step launch control and shooting for 700-750(getting motor built right now)....so...

I will have to try them. My Nittos do fine on the track but struggle on the street. Given on a nice warm day and decent highway(I live out in BFE) they hook from a 40 roll in 2nd gear. Anything in 1st gear doesn't hook on the street at all.

Good point. But that is reality on the street since i'm not talking about street racing at 2am with proper prep. Of course, my Nittos can semi-hook up with the proper prep anyways. Regardless, I think trying the MTs would be interesting once I wear the current set out.

i made 704 on a mustang dyno c6blower car, on the street with 315 hoosres from a dig no prep or burn out i got a lil spin out of them ,some heat and pj1 or pimp juice it will stick with w.e tire you have

I want to run the 325/45/17 M&H DR's on my 2012 GS (779 RWHP) but there is quite a bit of information that suggests this tire at 28" tall will set off problems with the Active Handling / Traction Control system. If this is true I would need to run the MT 295/45/17 (27" diameter) DR's to stay within the allowed front/rear diameter difference. Comments?

Do you have any information on the maximum rear/front diameter difference tolerance? The number I see most often is 1.04. However, the NT05R 345/30/19 DR's that are on the car now measure out at 1.06 so go figure. It is very frustrating I can't get definitive information.
