When you need "professional advice" just ask a "PRO".

Check MandHtires.com for a phone number to their office in Bakersfield, CA.

Ask for John Hashim (The "H" in M&H) for his advice. John is a second generation racer and he will not steer you wrong if you honestly tell him exactly what you have and what you want to do. He will tell you rim widths, starting air pressures, how to warm-up the tires, and any other question you might have to answer. You can't get this type of expert "specific" advice by calling Summit or Jeg's. And since he is the manufacturer/distributor you will get a good price. They even go so far as mounting every slick they sell and size the circumference to make sure you get a "matched set".

Tell him John Palmer the "VW racer" sent you.

..... I called John @ M & H tires on Thursday, ordered my tires & got them today. John recommended the 30 x 10.5 x 15's wrinkle wall slicks so that's what I got. He said I'd be WAY over-tired if I went as wide on the width as I wanted to go. That I could even go into the 600 HP range & not need 'more tire'. Plus these go on 10" wide wheels which are cheaper than the 12's ... I'm going to call Monday & order rims from Wheel Vintiques. The #12 Series Smoothie's, 15 x 10's wide, reversed with the same back spacing that I have now {I'll take the rim off tomorrow & measure}. To get the Back spacing that I need I'll have to have them reversed. Anyway, I HIGHLY recommend M & H to anyone who needs tires...... THANKS to all who helped me with this decision... Bill
