P255/50R-16 DOT Drag Radial Tire

The HOOSIER P255/50R-16 DOT Drag Radial Tire is designed for dedicated drag racers and street performance enthusiasts who require a tire that offers both track-proven grip and DOT legal compliance. This tire is ideal for those building a bracket racer, street strip car, or a competition-focused daily driver, providing the traction and durability necessary for consistent performance.

Featuring a radial design, this tire utilizes a specialized compound that balances grip and wear resistance, making it suitable for both racing and occasional street use. The radial carcass structure enhances sidewall compliance, which helps reduce wheel hop and improves traction on uneven surfaces, offering a significant advantage over traditional drag slicks.

Its lightweight design at 23.35 lbs per tire minimizes unsprung mass, enhancing suspension responsiveness and reducing rotational inertia during gear changes, which is crucial for competitive racing.
