I know that they have had the new stick shift tires for awhile now is there any gain in E.T. and M.P.H. with theses tires over the tires they had 6yrs ago.The 29.5 x 9.0 x 15.0 .

Thanks In Advance

I will assume you are talking about the 3056ST M/T tire.
Is there a performance advantage with these tires? Maybe. I have run M/T and Goodyear and have not really seen a gain in M/T but I believe they are more consistent. When the Goodyears are done, they are done. The M/T tires seem to work good even when they are worn out. Hoosier has a stick they they call a lightweight also. Never tried them.

On a side note, just received 10 sets of 3074ST M/T tires that are 14x32 stick tires. I believe M/T also has a few sets left from a recent batch run also. I do not believe these tires are listed in M/T's catalog. Any one need a pair, call me.

Yes I am wondering if the 3056ST M/T tire is any faster than the old Mickey Thompson tires from 5 or 6 years ago.I would love to have a st of those old firestones..

On my mustang the stiff sidewall tire picked up .05 over the regular MT. But the most key thing was its more consistent. I've ran 1.49 60 ft 12 runs in a row on diff times of testing. Well worth the buy....
