LOL you cant goto your car with a tape measure and measure it.

a 235/60/15 tire is 26.1" tall

well it seems as though m&h doesnt know what tire sizes are because every other 235/60/15 tire is 26" tall. look it up on all the websites selling tires and gear ratio calculators. either way 25.5" is still too big.

26in slicks are to big i agree but as a street tire for a turbo b imo i dont think they are...

Seems like a pretty dumb comparison. To know which TIRE performs better, you'd want to run them on the same car. I know that should be one of those Mr Obvious moments but I guess for some people, it's not.... :gack:

That is true of running them on the same car, but i still think they should race and whichever one wins will be the tire i use when i am ready, just a thought
