28x11.50-15LT ET Street R Tire

The 28x11.50-15LT ET Street R Tire from Mickey Thompson is purpose-built for dedicated drag racing and high-performance street applications where traction and launch consistency matter most. This is the tire serious enthusiasts choose when building a dedicated quarter-mile machine or weekend warrior that demands maximum grip off the line. If you're modifying a vehicle for bracket racing, bracket competition, or aggressive street duty, the ET Street R delivers the sidewall construction and compound engineering that professional racers have trusted for decades.

The 28x11.50-15LT ET Street R employs a bias-ply carcass design—a critical advantage for launch dynamics that radial tires simply cannot match. Bias-ply construction creates a stiffer sidewall that resists deformation during hard acceleration, ensuring consistent power transfer and predictable handling under load. The M5 compound formulation is Mickey Thompson's specialized rubber blend optimized for repeated heat cycles and maximum grip coefficients without sacrificing durability across multiple passes. The 15-inch rim diameter integrates with classic lightweight wheel packages, and DOT approval confirms this tire meets federal safety standards for street-legal use, making it compliant for road registration while delivering dedicated track performance.

This tire is ideal for bracket racers, drag racing enthusiasts, and hot rodders running dedicated competition vehicles or street machines with significant power modifications. The 28-inch overall diameter suits vehicles with classic or modern lightweight wheel packages, particularly those engineered for weight reduction and performance tuning. Installation requires wheels engineered for 15-inch bead diameter with load ratings matching your vehicle's total weight; consult your chassis builder or tire specialist to confirm fitment and pressure specifications for your specific application. The black sidewall finish provides traditional drag racing aesthetics while the single-tire unit design allows builders to source matched pairs or quads for symmetrical grip performance.
