26.0/4.5-15 Front Runner

The Goodyear 26.0/4.5-15 Front Runner is a purpose-built drag racing tire engineered for vehicles that demand maximum traction off the line and consistent performance in competitive environments. This tire is designed specifically for drag-strip and bracket-racing vehicles where launch grip and predictability matter most.

Built on a bias-ply construction, the distinctive yellow-letter sidewall not only provides classic aesthetic appeal but also serves as a visual marker of a serious racing compound. The tire features a hard compound formulation that resists deformation under extreme acceleration loads, delivering consistent sidewall stiffness and predictable weight transfer characteristics.

At 11.18 lbs, the 4.5-inch width balances frontal contact patch with lightweight construction, crucial for vehicles optimized for quarter-mile performance. The bias-ply carcass structure allows the tire to flex and hook without sacrificing lateral stability during the critical first few feet off the starting line, making it ideal for serious drag racers.
