Default Drag radial

Simple question to anyone that may know the answer. Are drag radials legal in stock eliminator and if so are there size requirements. Are you limited to a 235 or 255 or 275 etc. any input would be greatly appreciated.

Yes they are. We have to use a 9in slick. So whatever you measure across on your drag radial, make sure it doesn't go past that.

I forget the exact measurement that NHRA placed in their rule book. I think it was 9.5 across max including wear?

There are a few running the 275 street radial.

I asked about this for a whole year and no one had a clear answer. They will get the tape measure out for the 235/255/275 but not for anything that says 9" on the side, where you can clearly see stocker tires being stretched to 10+ inches. Run at your own risk. I had to settle on a bias play 28x9 for my stocker because I couldn't fit the traditional 30x9 radial under it.

Thank you for responding. I figured it was a gray area as with most of stock
