8.5/24.5-15 M&H Tire Drag Race Rear

The 8.5/24.5-15 M&H Tire Drag Race Rear is specifically designed for serious bracket racers and high-performance drag strip competitors who require consistent traction off the line. This rear slick tire is engineered for optimal performance in quarter-mile and eighth-mile applications, where launch grip and sidewall stiffness are crucial for achieving the best elapsed times and trap speeds.

With a diameter of 24.5 inches and a width of 8.5 inches, this tire is optimized for weight distribution and rotational inertia, which helps reduce wheel hop and improve launch consistency on prepared surfaces. The M&H race compound formulation is designed to provide maximum grip at the temperatures typically experienced during drag strip acceleration. Its slick design maximizes the contact patch with the asphalt, ensuring efficient power transfer during the critical initial phase of acceleration.

Ideal for dedicated drag cars, street-legal muscle machines, and bracket racers, this tire pairs best with a 15-inch diameter drag racing wheel. The lightweight construction, at 15.5 lbs per tire, ensures durability across multiple heat cycles and back-to-back runs, making it a reliable choice for competitive racing.
