Here you can find the latest news from the world of Hoosier racing tires and the latest information on new products and promotions.
The Hoosier 275/60R15 DR3 - a DOT radial tire tailored to the needs of drag-racers.
Hoosier Racing Tire has scored a major success with the brand new DR3 in size 275/60R15.
The radial carcass of its predecessor, the DR2, has been completely redesigned to deliver even more performance on the drag-strip. The new DR3 tire construction hooks like never before!
In combination with the newly formulated DR3-compound, Hoosier has launched a drag tire with unbeatable traction: It really comes into its own in no-prep-racing, impressing with exceptional grip. The tire only needs a very short burnout to be ready for action.
The extremely good performance of the DR3 results in quicker elapsed times. Another particularly impressive feature: When loosing traction, the recoverability is absolutely impressive.
15-inch wet tires - bias-ply - 22.0x9.0-15 W3 now available!
The brand new bias-ply rain tire for 15" rims is now available in size 22.0x9.0-15.
The molded wet tread pattern, combined with the well-known and very soft W3 compound, guarantees maximum grip in damp/wet conditions. Suitable for rim widths from 8.5“ to 9.5”, this tire offers a tread width of approx. 248 mm with a total width of approx. 265 mm.
In comparison, the diameter of 565 mm is just under one centimeter larger than that of the 21.5x10.0-15 bias-ply slick, which measures approx. 556 mm.
Another, narrower wet tire variant for 15" rims will follow in the first quarter of 2026 with the 22.0x7.5-15 W3. We will provide information here and on the usual social media channels as soon as this wet tire is available.

*Due to the impending introduction of the new “EUDR regulation”, an EU regulation on global forest protection, which regulates the import of products with natural rubber, such as tires, into the EU, it was uncertain whether imports from the USA would be scheduled in the first months of 2025, so we supplemented our stocks at the end of 2024 to ensure the best possible delivery capability.
New sizes & compounds - spec. hillclimb / slalom
(Update 18th of Sept. 2024)
21.5 x 15 - bias-ply tires
The first production batches of 21.5x10.0-15 and 21.5x8.7-15 in R20 compound have been produced and have already been used very successfully in hillclimb and slalom races. The first tires in 10” width are already sold out. In 8.7” we still have a small stock. We are also expecting 21.5x7.5-15 R20 tires shortly. All three sizes will be available as standard in the future. In addition to the R20 compound (super-soft), we also plan to offer all three sizes in R15 (ultra-soft), as well as two sizes in 21.5” as rain tires with the Hoosier W3 compound.
Formula / sports car 13” radial
In addition to the various sizes in super-soft (SS1), there will also be 5 sizes in ultra-soft (US) in the future . We expect to receive the first 4 sizes by air freight in a few days:
300/590R13 US (in preparation)
15“ & 16” Radial (tire-combination for Radical-cars, especially for hillclimb-events)
The range is supplemented by the following new sizes and compounds:
200/580R15 now in SS1 (super-soft) and MS (medium-soft) as well as still in MH (medium-hard) available. Soon there will be a rain tire in W3 HC too.
265/605R16 is being reissued and will be available in the compounds SS1 and MS. Soon there will be a rain tire in W3 HC too.
13” bias-ply tires
In addition to the existing compounds (R20, R35B, R60A), the R11-compound will be available for various sizes in the coming months. R11 is the Hoosier ultra-soft compound and therefore even softer than R20-compound.
20.0X 7.0-13 - R11
20.5X 7.0-13 - R11
20.0X 7.5-13 - R11
20.0X 9.0-13 - R11
22.0X 8.0-13 - R11
22.0X 9.0-13 - R11
18” Radial Slicks
Already available since spring 2024 are 4 sizes for 18” rims with super-soft.compound (SS1):
For wet and cold hillclimb-events there is a rain tire in 240/640R18 W3 HC available in the extremely good performing W3-compound with a hand-cutted pattern.
