M&H drag radial and 17X9 in the front

[playero_loko]

has anybody had any experience with these tires, im being told the MT street drags are in back order from MT. they offer to replace them with M&H drags and i just wanted to know if they would be similiar to the MT.

also i wanted to have a 17X9 up front with a +12 5zingen rim the fn...10cr whatever it goes im too lazy to go look for it, anyways would that size rims be a problem? i got 20mm spacer and what not... will this rim be too much to be able to add enough camber so it doesnt eat up my tires in one trip around town?

why are you trying to use street slicks? do you have that bad of traction issues?

weekend worrior! i just wanted to know mostly if a 17x9 in the with a 20mm spacer would require to much camber that it couldnt be compensated with camber plates??? wheel gods please help!

I'd recommend drag radials instead of street slicks. Street slicks are fairly limited in their handling abilities and are for straight line use for the most part. Drag radials are a little stiffer and very streetable. Plus they come in lower profile sizes and give good traction above regular street tires.

17x9+12 on the front will stick out from the fender about a half inch without negative camber.

17x9+12 on the rear will stick out from the fender an inch or so and need to be cambered or have the fenders rolled and maybe pulled depending on the tire width you choose.

If I read that right and all 4 wheels are +12 offset, you won't need that 20mm spacer. Look into MT and MH drag radials.
