MT DR on a 16 inch rim? What is largest available?

[GNBRETT]

What would be the largest MT DR that would fit on a 16x8 or 10in rim? I know they came out with a few new sizes and was wondering if anyone was using them on their 16 in wheels. Thanx...

 

[GNBRETT]

No one?

Haven't tried any myself but I wouldn't try to fit anything bigger than the 295 that they offer.

MT came out with a new 16" one. think it's 28" tall 10.5" wide. I just got M&Hs for the Mazda.. 28"s tall 8.8"s wide (tight fit)

What are the dimensions on that new 16? Is it available in a 295-50 or 60?

Dan how do you think those would stand up next to the MT DR as far as traction on the street? It was my understanding that the MT were superior.

thats how I feel BUT I needed 16" ones and TALL and the MT's wouldn't fit.. I believe MTs are 1" or 1.5" wider than these. Figured I would give em a whirl

Ok, gotcha.

I was doing some research on the internet and it seems that a lot of people are runnen the M&H on the street and cutten really good 60ft's at the track. People also stated that they are actually softer then the MT.

I don't know how true that is but it seems like they will get the job done better then the Nittos could ever dream of.

Btw, what's the price on these?

 

[BlackMetal]

Wow those look nice I didn't know about those.

[GNBRETT]

I'll have to admit those do appear quite sticky.
