Tire recommendations for drag racing

[ATLHellcat]

what tires do y’all recommend for drag racing?

15” conversion with as big a tire as you can fit
Or a 17” Darkstar wheel with the 315 Mickey Thompson.

 

[Speedy!]

17" wheels and 305/45R17 Mickey Thompson ET Street R tires. Work amazing.

Start with a 17” wheel. I recommend a bead lock as there are a number of those to choose from with proper spacing for the Hellcat now. M/T ET-R has proven to work well with these cars. I would say... 305/45 for cars down to 10.0. 315/50 for cars down to 9.0 along with rear end accessories to go with.

Agreed.
