Just wondering if Hossiers should look like this, there has been no track passes just street driving and no burn outs. They dont really seem to get sticky like a standard DR when you burn out but they do hook in 1st no problem.

I dont know about drag tires, but I do know about motorcycle race tires and that looks like "cold tear" to me.
What does that mean sorry? Like they havent been heated yet?
When just cruising around on the street I keep the pressure up around 38psi. It will help prevent this and will last long. when you want to race drop the pressure. It still does its to an extent but not nearly as bad
Thanks man will try this also.
This is a motorcycle example of cold tearing. You notice it is only on a strip of the tire. That strip is where the rider is getting on the throttle hard after a corner, when picking the bike up. The tire is too cold and it is tearing the outter layer of rubber instead of neatly "shedding" it.
Nice chicken stripe! Haha makes me miss mine! :-(
As suggested, up the pressure on the street; however, if you always drive your car around on those tires that wont stop it. They will wear way faster than an et drag. I loved mine.
My buddies Hoosiers always looked like that as well. They were also the most unstable DR on the top end that I've ever experienced.
My Hoosier Slicks, look just like that after a drive home from the track.
You roll with them on Sat?
