Anyone make a 27 or 28" tall 17" drag tire of sorts

[blownby]

Cant seem to find anything. Everything seems like 26"......
Can be a drag radial or bias ply.
This would be geared for track only, but prefer DOT so I can drive to and from track.

Thanks,

Hoosier Makes a 28x10r17 Stiff Walled Slick (Bias-Ply). Only Bias-Ply I know of for the 17" wheel.

There are also DOZENS of drag Radials out there for 17" wheels, Nitto (NT555R, NT01R), Mickey Thompson (ET Street SS, ET Street R), I think hoosier also makes from DRs in 17".

Any particular reason for not running a 15" wheel?

MT-3572 and M&H-ROD-19 are 28" tall radials for 17" wheels.

The MT is a bigger tire 305/45R17 vs 275/50-17 M&H.

Are you a stick or auto? If you're M6, I have not tried the new MT but from personal experience with their older DR's, I'd run the M&H.

stick....
Considering just running 19 or 20's on street and then swapping a matching 17" wheel on the back with a track oriented tire.

Vs buying a full weld rts 15/17 combo.
Also I am considering running the larger rear brakes setup and 15" rear wont work. Wanted to see if 17" wheels and 28" tall tires were an option before i pulled the trigger on wheels and brakes.

Thanks for the info.

Looks like M&H has a 325/45R17 too....

We have used the 275/50R17 M&H tires and the Hoosier 28x10x17 slick on our 2015 Mustang GT, both have worked great. The Mickey 305/45R17 looks to be a nice tire, pretty big though.

I run the MT R series 305/45/17. It's not quite 28". No complaints.
