Let's say both lasted the same and, they both performed the same in the rain, and they both cost the same. I'm saying that because none of that matters to me. My concern is the MT getting noticeably sticky from a 30 mile drive on a dry hot day. Other than cruise nights and driving around town I often drive 30 miles to a car show and pull into a grass field. I dont want the tires to look like astro turf if you know what I mean. So do they get sticky enough to pick up stuff just driving them?
