Drivers of custom street & high-horsepower strip applications can have true drag-race look and performance with the expanded Sportsman S/R front radial tire line from Mickey Thompson Tires & Wheels.

Four new “skinnies” have been added to the Sportsman’s S/R line to complement the popular 26-and 28-inch options: 27X6.00R15LT, 27X8.00R15LT, 27X6.00R17LT and 27X8.00R17LT.

The 27X6.00 sizes are approved for 15 and 17-inch wheels up to 5 inches wide, while the 27X8.00 sizes are approved for 15 and 17-inch wheels up to 7 inches wide.

The premier skinny front-tire solution for street & strip applications, the Sportsman S/R “skinnies” pair well with Mickey Thompson’s ET Street S/S, ET Street R (radial) or Sportsman S/R tires for an excellent performance combination. Particularly suited for street & strip applications, the Sportsman S/R “skinnies” offer decreased weight and rolling resistance for easier launches and quicker ETs at the track.

“Featuring a unique flamed tread pattern, custom sizing, long life and a smooth ride, the Sportsman S/R radial is a must-have for hot rodders and racers alike,” said Ken Warner, Vice President of Marketing for Mickey Thompson Tires & Wheels.
