Not here for a tie debate. That said M/t for what ever reason stopped making this tire. Unsure what to replace it with. This tire has worked them best for us pretty disappointed its not gonna be available.

Goodyears owns MT so my guess they want you to run the GY version. I have ran both in years past and the GY is a much better tire, at least it was for me. Plus it holds air.
I wanted to try the Hoosier but the section width was to wide for my Camaro

I ran the Gy 1408 before which is they same size and stiffside wall was a good tire also.

Looks like the GY 1408 is your only choice unless you have room for the Hoosier

Said you would need more BS. Guessing noway to run spacer. I have 1/2" billet spacers from Neil and Parks has 3 patterns and Neil and Parks only make good stuff.

If you are looking to stay MT the 3074s would be a good option.

Well i am vain and like the look of a fat tire lol. I know a 32-14 would be fine. That said the car is flat printing tickets. Got to 4 cars thursday 5k and 7 cars at the 20k saturday at vmp. Was going well until someone was rather rude and slapped a .001 total package down making my .007 bulb useless lol

if it ain't broke don't fix it though if it's printing tickets, it should print tickets with a 14" tire too and will run quicker too.
