Not much help but we tried the 29.5 x 10.5 Phoenix after running the same size M/T. The Phoenix was a lot taller than the sidewall designation, it rubbed on the body work when the tyre grew at speed. IIRC it was acting more like a 30.5 tyre, car ran well with them though for the few passes we had them on till we realised what was happening. A friend bought them to try on his 10 sec truck, he was impressed also. HTH's

I ran the Phoenix 29.5x10.5 on my 9 second Dart and loved them, they also were bigger than advertised.

I ran mine w/o tubes. I had a tube tear a few years ago right after a run and kinda scared me away from using them.

I ran them tubeless for years on my roadrunner. Liked them better due to more tread per section width than similar MT's

I never used that size,but we always used Phoenix after Firestone quit making them. We always had very good hook with Phoenix,and we used tubes.And Phoenix tends to run a bit large on size,compared to other brands.

I have used them for years with good results. I have a few used sets that you can have for trial fitting...send a UPS pick up tag to Connecticut and they are yours.

You'll get more runs out of them too because the sidewalls are stiffer than the mickeys.I saw .02-.03 reduction in reaction time when I switched to pheonix from the mickeys,due to the sidewall,I assume.
