About This Tire

The Hoosier D.O.T. Drag Radial 2 245/45R17 is a specialized drag racing tire designed for competitive drag racers who participate in sanctioned events at local strips where street-legal DOT approval is required. Its race-proven compound and construction focus on maximum straight-line traction and acceleration performance for quarter-mile competition.

This tire features Hoosier's specialized drag racing compound and radial construction specifically engineered for strip use, incorporating technology developed from their extensive racing experience. The tire carries DOT markings to meet sanctioned racing requirements but comes with explicit warnings against highway use due to safety concerns including potential loss of traction and vehicle control on public roads.

Compared to street performance tires, it prioritizes maximum drag strip traction and competition compliance over everyday drivability and safety margins. Overall, it's a specialized choice for serious drag racers competing in classes that mandate DOT-approved tires at sanctioned racing facilities.
