stock between using 16qtp on rx7 wheels or original 17"rims with m&h drag slicks

any one is better than the other?
i know the 16" will have a bit more flex but other than that is their any major difference or any pros and cons?

really like how the m&h slicks look on oem wheels....

any advice pls...

 

I'm partial to the MH's personally

 

Anyone else with experience

 

 

Its a choice between.... 16" qtp on rx7 wheels or m&h slicks on my oem wheels....

 

Anyone?

 

From what I've read most people say to get the MH radials if your going on the stock rim. The 60ft times were marginally different and they are much safer...

 

 

 

Yes will be racing at the tracks

 

 

For what use?

Drag tires are intended for drag racing, and they are mostly bias-ply...

Tires for circuit, hillclimb or rally are different, and are also different depending on what do you need them for, circuit, hillclimb or rally... Almost all are radial tires, but some people still use cross-ply tires, I have seen them on some cars on hillclimbs...

You have a wide choice, Michelin, Pirelli, Dunlop, Bridgestone, Yokohama, Goodyear, Continental, Hankook, Kumho, Avon, etc...

See this, then decide what do you need:

Thanks. .. its for strictly drag racing at the tracks

 

I have ran the Hoosier QTP's on 16" Rota Slipstreams, MT ET Street R on 15" Kosei K1's, and 15" MT ET Drag slicks. I'm not a fan of the Hoosier QTP's, was never able to get a decent 60 foot out of them. I had better 60fts with the MT ET Street R's and best with the MT ET Drag slicks.

I would run the M&H slick over the QTP any day.

 

ok guys I'm wanting similar info. I am wondering if I should get another set of Hoosier 26x9.5-r16 QTP dot slicks best 60ft with only one track day was 1.65 60ft with 12psi. I didn't get to run again due to the track closing but I was gonna make a pass on 10psi. just wondering if anyone has run both the qtp's 16's and the m&h 16's? I m about to order new tires and I'm really shooting for 1.5 60ft. I'm running 16" rotas currently with arp extended studs and STM 20mm spacers. the new tires will be on FD's. just need to choose between the 2 slicks both will be 16's. Thanks! does M&H even offer a 16? if not then what 16" slick is best?
