Just got mine

This is what a bad alignment can to to a $300 mh racemaster. Its my own fault i put a bunch of suspension stuff on and never got it re aligned.

That sucks. Probably not getting good contact area with that alignment either resulting with less than ideal traction.

How much power and torque you hooking at 22 psi?

Yea had to be less than ideal. Still cut a 1.6 60' with that bad alignment. Have a few suspension parts, drag shocks, 0° camber alignment, and a cam since the time in my sig. Gonna go back to the track when the weather cools a bit and try and run mid 10's

Ya got me all excited now. I 've had a set sitting in my garage for 2 months waiting to get a chance to use them.

How much power were you throwing at them?

bct10985 · 08-13-2015, 10:26 PM

Just got them mounted. I feel like my old 325 m&h racemasters would hook better on the street than these. I had them aired down to 17psi and it would spin 1st and second old tires wouldnt spin in second even at 30lbs. And this is after adding front drag shocks and a drag spec alignment. Not sure what else i can do to get traction.

If you don't mind me asking, where did you get them from? I've been looking for some and all I get is that they are on backorder.

Did you ever get the new MT street r tires to work for you?

Anyone else try them and have a review?

bct10985 · 06-20-2016, 03:38 PM

I sold them before i got the 4l80 in. Went with 15" et street r now. Havent tested them yet either

camarosspower · 11-17-2016, 09:21 AM

Bumping this thread back up. Anyone else using these tires. Idk if I should just get the 325/45/17 m&h race masters or try the et Street r. My tires look exactly how bct10985 tires looked lol

nightmaro10 · 11-17-2016, 08:18 PM

I use the ET street R. Best tire I have used hands down. I had them on the race star 17s. I currently hold the bolt on 1/4 mile #1 spot with them. 1.48 60ft in a bolt on car. Before that I had racemasters on my corvette 18s. They were child's play compared to the street R's. Don't get me wrong, when the racemasters hooked up they rolled out. Key word, when. But I have no guesses to whether I'm going to hook up or not with the street R's. I have just put some CCW 16s on the rear with the racemasters, only because there is no street R tire for the 16s I have. If I do well, I'll be selling my racestar 17inch setup with the street R's. If I don't, I will be putting them back on and selling the CCW setup. All in all, another fan of the et street R here.

What tire pressure are you running in your street R's?
