P235/60R-15 DR2 Tire DOT Drag Radial

The P235/60R-15 DR2 Tire DOT Drag Radial from Hoosier is purpose-built for bracket racers and street strip enthusiasts who demand repeatable launch grip and sustained straight-line acceleration. Unlike street radials or all-season compounds, drag radials are engineered specifically for vehicles modified for performance driving, where consistent tire growth, predictable sidewall flex, and optimal launch traction matter more than wet-weather versatility.

This tire bridges the gap between full slicks and street-legal road tires, making it ideal for drivers who want DOT compliance without sacrificing drag-strip performance. The P235/60R-15 DR2 uses a radial construction and a specialized compound formulated for high-grip launches at controlled speeds typical of eighth-mile and quarter-mile competitions. The sidewall stiffness is calibrated to minimize deflection under hard acceleration, reducing wheel hop and improving weight transfer during launch—critical factors when tuning suspension geometry on vehicles running pinned differentials or limited-slip units.

At 22 lbs per tire, this radial is lightweight enough to reduce unsprung mass, improving acceleration feel and allowing better suspension tuning for bracket-racing setups. The DOT approval means it can legally roll off-track to the fuel pump or staging lanes without trailer duty. This tire fits classic muscle cars, Fox-body Mustangs, second-gen Camaros, and more.
