New M & H dot drag tyres
Fitted up some M & H dot drag tyres today, they are 215 65 x 15, and fit on a 5 inch Flat 4 BRM very nicely, very soft and still drive OK on the
road.
these are the ones Vintage Vee dub are selling.

Dave,
I have 25 psi in them now, it isn't a daily driver so it will only be driven every now and then.

Maybe not street legal, they are DOT approved but thats an american thing. Do they have a speed and load rating etc on them? |

Isn't it more of a yankee thing so hot cars can run hot tyres and still be classed as street legal for drag racing.
They are nice tyres but can't see you running them on the road. They'd last about 5 mins!
Dave your using yours for the drags only aren't you?
