What tires work the best at the drag strip?
Mickey Thompson Sportsman Pro rear tires (26×9.50-16LT) are one of the better brands. But they’re just barely DOT approved. M&H Racemaster street/ strip are also a good choice. They are great for drag racing, offering much more traction than the stock tires. Unfortunately, the tires are worthless for anything else. Cornering or driving in the rain with the M&H tires is a bad idea. Even on dry pavement at highway speeds is strange as the back of the car tends to wander back and forth. It’s probably best to only use them at the strip. It’s also a good idea to screw the tires to the rims as the tires tend to slip around the rim. Drill a series of holes through the rims into the tires and put in rim screws. These hold the tires in place.
