Drag Tire 29.5/10.5S-15 C06

The Hoosier Drag Tire 29.5/10.5S-15 C06 is a purpose-built drag slick engineered for straight-line acceleration and launch traction on dedicated drag strips and racing events. This bias-ply construction delivers the consistent grip needed for consistent ET performance, making it the choice for bracket racing, heads-up competition, and serious drag racing builds where launch grip and predictable power transfer are non-negotiable.

The 29.5 x 10.5-15 size and C06 compound represent Hoosier's proven formula for high-traction launches on prepped racing surfaces. The C06 rubber compound is formulated to generate maximum grip in the critical first few feet of acceleration, where wheel spin defeats elapsed time. The white-letter sidewall provides the classic drag racing aesthetic while the 15-inch wheel diameter fits common racing wheel and suspension combinations. At 27 lbs per tire, weight remains reasonable for motorsports applications where unsprung mass affects handling and acceleration.

This tire is built for drivers running dedicated drag racing programs—bracket racers chasing consistency, footbrake competitors maximizing launch traction, and grassroots racing teams where tire choice directly impacts round wins. The C06 compound excels on prepped track surfaces but is not designed for street use or rain racing. Serious drag racers value this tire for its repeatability and proven track record in NHRA-style competition and bracket racing events where launches determine winners.

Drag slicks occupy a specific niche in motorsports—they prioritize launch grip and consistency over tread life, speed rating, or street performance. Hoosier's reputation in drag racing stems from decades of competition use and tire development based on racer feedback. The 29.5/10.5S-15 configuration in the C06 compound is a trusted setup for cars running in the 10s or 11s at the track, offering the specialized performance that generic tires cannot match.
