M&H's seem pretty popular, going to start saving my pennies now.

Do not get a slick with a tube in it. You will hate hate hate it lol. Find tubeless slicks!! lol.
Why do you not want a slick with a tube? Don't hook as well?

yeah ecoli is right, slicks on street is ditch. Better be damn sure its not going to rain or even sprinkle, and sure no one has their sprinklers on.

To go ricering. I'd would think about rocking the qtp's on the street once or twice if I got some, but I don't think I'd drive on staight slicks.

I would look at the regular quick time DOT tires, or the Mickey Thompsons they seem to have pretty good tread on them for da streetz

Slicks are hard, because they have a wrinkle wall effect. You drive in a straight line, and the car sways back n forth, take an off ramp and you better be going no faster then 30..the tire will just fold over on it'self. I remember nate in his civic complain about it once, and they where not even full slicks if I remember correctly.
