New Mickey Thompson Drag Tire Hits Market

March 2, 2022

Mickey Thompson Tires & Wheels has rolled out a new tire for drag race applications, the ET Front Dragster, available in size 22x2.5-17.

The tire features a tubeless, ultra-lightweight design, bias-ply construction and new, white vinyl letters spelling out "Mickey Thompson" on its sidewall.

"The new ET Front Dragster is completely redesigned, from the ultra-light construction to the new stylized letter design," says Heather Tausch, director of product management, Mickey Thompson Tires & Wheels, which is owned by Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co.

"Built to perform, this tire is a perfect match with rear Mickey Thompson ET drag racing tires."
