"Street type or drag slick tires, maximum 9 inch tread width"
Good news - rules say you can use the 7" tires. Even street tires. Throw them on there. Motorcycle guys might know which ones to use. |

Re: Group formed to rescind 1975 9" tire rule!
Question, is there a rule that says you cannot run a smaller tire?
If there is no rule then y’all can run the small tire. No disrespect but Why penalize the other cars?

Agree. Has anyone measured the tires marked "9" lately?
