28.0/10.5R-17 Drag Radial Tire

The Hoosier 28.0/10.5R-17 drag radial tire is purpose-built for dedicated drag racers and street-strip enthusiasts who demand consistent performance at the track. This tire bridges the gap between full slick capability and street-legal handling, making it the go-to choice for bracket racers, bracket-style street cars, and weekend warriors running dedicated drag setups. Whether you're launching from a standstill or managing high-speed stability on the strip, this 28-inch-tall radial delivers the predictable bite and minimal sidewall roll that separates winners from the field.

The 10.5-inch-wide contact patch is engineered to maximize traction during violent acceleration while maintaining radial construction benefits over traditional slicks—better steering response and cooler running temperatures during sustained driving. The R-17 designation confirms fitment on 17-inch wheels, a standard in modern bracket racing where weight savings and rotational inertia matter. This tire is designed to provide consistent performance with a drag-specific compound and tread pattern optimized for repeatable performance across multiple runs.

Ideal for racers targeting 1.5-second 60-foot times, the Hoosier 28.0/10.5R-17 tire offers predictable launch characteristics without the heat and wear associated with true competition slicks on concrete. Its lightweight design ensures that it won't add unnecessary rotational mass to your launch package, making it a smart choice for serious competitors. This tire is perfect for those looking to enhance their performance on the drag strip while maintaining street legality.
