Default Mickey Thompson Drag Radials 295/55/15

FedEx man just dropped them off. Will be mounting them soon on some Aluma Star 15x10's. Just thought I would post some pics since they're so new...

I tried Jegs, but they only had one tire left and the other one would be backordered. Seems to be the norm for these tires right now.

I hook with the 17" DR's pretty well if the tires are warmed up. At the track it seems to really hold the power even at close to full boost.
