28' 17in radial/slick

[black N boosted]

I have been looking through the forum and on Google for a 28' 17in drag radial and or slick.. The only thing that I have found was the hoosier d06! Anyone know of any other out there? Found a few other with the overall diameter of 27 but no 28.. Thanks in advance!

These are the ones I used a few seasons ago I should of said that... I was looking for an alternative besides thoughts and came up with the Hoosiers... Thanks

AFAIK - those are the only 28" DRs in a 17

M&H makes good DRs why not continue to use them?

Just seeing if there was anything out there besides the m&h which I have no complaints about! Thanks

I run the 325/45/17 M&H drag radial. Great tires.

Did you get the "skinny" 325's or the newer "correct width" versions ?

In 2007, I bought the 325-45-17 M&H DR and "John" @ M&H swore they would fit a 8 in. wide 17" wheel.

I kept thinking ...no way a 325 mm tire fits a 8 inch wheel.
Well, he was right...they fit great. Pic attached

Problem was M&H mislabeled the tires as 325's when in reality they were 275mm size.

Didn't matter I guess because those tires have worked great for me and last year I managed a 1.5x 60 ft. out of them on my Turbo Coupe.

I really like M&H's tires.
They ride nice and balance easy.
Other than the size mislabeling, I have had no complaints.

These are mine. 325/45/17. I had the wheels widened by Weldcraft to a 10 inch wheel. Wheels and M&H tires were done in January of 2012. Tires are definitely not mislabeled 275s. I'd love to put the M&H 390/40/17s on the car. That would be friggin sick LOL!!

Oh yes, you have the correct ones.
I am not sure what year they corrected the problem...maybe 2009-2010 ?

Are those widened stock wheels ?
I had a set of Center Line wheels widened by weldcraft years ago.
Nice work done on them

Yes, those are the stock wheels. Weldcraft does a helluva job. I was worried I'd have vibrations. Even up to 130 + the ride is smooth.
