Phoenix Rear Slick 10.5/28.0-15 Phoenix Drag Race Tire

Phoenix Racing Tires are the choices of champion drag racers, because of consistency and long life. From weekend warriors with door slammers to professional race teams with National Championships on the line, Phoenix Drag Tires are a great choice. In addition to a number of bias ply slicks, Phoenix also has three radial slicks, which are very popular in Super Stock racing. We measure, match and inspect every tire to assure they meet our standards of excellence.

Painted White Letter

Painting the letters on a tire is a practice that began many years ago, specifically in Indy Car racing. The painted letters made the tire brand more visible to the spectators, and in photographs, so it gave the tire manufacturer more media exposure. This look translated into the hot rod world in the 1950's and 1960's and even made its way into the muscle car market. Raised white letters became a more formal way to accomplish the colored letters.

Bias Ply Construction

Bias ply tire construction is a method that was used from the 1900's through the 1970's on passenger cars and light trucks. Bias ply tires feature ply cords that run at a 45 degree angle to the bead, and overlap in a crisscross pattern, depending on how many ply layers are used. This creates a strong tire, but bias ply tires have a tendency to follow breaks or ruts in the pavement. Bias ply tires are the most authentic choice for classic car restorations and traditional hot rod builds. Coker Tire offers a huge variety of bias ply tires for many applications.
