I haven't had the chance to try the MT's, but from what i've heard i'd have to agree with Time4miller. My Nittos hook ok, but i've seen the MT's in action on a buddys ride and they are very sticky.

Traction wise comparing nittos to MTs is like comparing a V6 toa GT500. The same can pretty much be said the other way around for tread life though
