New m/t radials

[RYAN GRAVES]

Are the P295/55/R15 legal for TSM? Cross section width 12.0 tread 10.8

I am pretty sure they are just want a verification.

It is a 28x12.50 that is a direct replacment for a 28x10.5 slick. I have seen the tred listed as 10.0 10.8 10.9 So who knows what it really is. I see no advantage over the big hoosier drag radial that is legal so i say it is all good. What does everyone else think. Walt

So this one's not legal either? 29.6 is too tall. I just checked summits site & they lisy it as 29.5

A 29.5" M/T slick is legal. It's actually 29.9" tall.

Unfortunately, the tire rule has not been updated since before in introduction of the new drag radials. So the Hoosier is shorter than at 29.5" slick and less than 10.6" wide measured and is legal.
