Default Re: Hoosier drag radial vs bracket radial

Take that tidbit to your therapist & maybe he or she will pretend to give a shyt.

Now, back to the original question of what's the difference. You come up with the clueless comment.

They have a softer compound than even the C06 & are a heavier tire even though they're slightly narrower.

Conjecture NOT a factual comment!

Larry & Agder,

The Hoosier link shows the two tires & their compounds. Then using Hoosier compound chart, you can see the DBR compound is on the soft side of the C06 compound.

As for the different weights, you can look that up in Jeg's. They have the DDR at 32 lbs. & the other drag radial at 25 lbs.

All you know is the information available online to the public. You are not privy to Hoosier’s engineering, production and marketing meetings.

I will report the results next spring. My self-imposed goal is to have my S-10 on track by that timeline.

Larry as long as your track’s starting line is prepped, you’ll love them.
