Details & Inspection Notes
This Phoenix Race Tires front runner is a DOT-approved bias ply drag tire sized at 4.5/26.0-15, built for the front end of a drag car rather than the driven rear.
Why size matters here
Phoenix produces this front runner across several sizes, and the right pick comes down to how much rollout you want at the front; a different diameter or width changes how the nose of the car sits and rolls, so match the size to your chassis setup instead of guessing.
Construction
Like Phoenix's other front drag tires, this one uses a lightweight bias ply build paired with a tread pattern meant for less rolling resistance than a street tire, which is the point of a dedicated front runner on a drag car. It carries DOT approval, and Phoenix makes it in the USA.
Common questions
Is this tire DOT legal? Yes, it carries DOT approval.
Does this tire mount on the front or the rear? The front; a front runner is not meant for the driven rear axle.
Are other sizes available from Phoenix? Yes, several sizes are offered so the rollout can be matched to your build.
