Title: Nostalgia Top Fuel Tyres
Post by: blake on July 13, 2018, 08:19:13 AM
Hi Jon

We run a front engine dragster in Australia and we run Pro Alcohol.
Our last 3 runs were 5.96, 5.99 and 6.001.
The tyres are going off and we need new ones.
The Hoosier dealer out here does not import NTF tyres any more.
Do you know of anyone over there selling NTF 12. 33.16. 105 106 rollout.
We've tried Mickey Thompson tyres but they're only 101 rollout.
Can you help please?

Thanks, Blake Racing

Blake, you might like M&H , they were the 1'st company to make N/TF tires, and have improved their tires since.
MH has 13.00/16 that is 12.2" tread width, 15.4 section width, 101" roll-out, Hayden Wheels is M&H dealer, I'll check on Monday about drop shipping to Aus.
The M/T tires show on their website the 34.0/13.5-16 is 34.5 dia, 109 roll-out, 14" tread width, 39 lbs weight. I can call Monday to confirm the roll-outs, and I know FED that are running their "Bubba" tires.
My Email address is jchansen60@gmail.com, phone 805-444-4489

Blake , i got ahold of M&H today, thier NTF tire, 13.00x16x34 will have a roll-out of 104 to 107, depending on rim width.
But they can't drop ship to Australia, but I can ship to your agent/ shipper state side, [ hopefully Calif].
No word back from M/T yet.
So does that work for you ?

Jon

Since my last post I got on to Tom Shelar in California. He sells Hoosier NTF tyres. We’ve now bought 2 from him.
Thanks for your help.
