Who plans on trying the new announced Pro Bracket Radials when they come out? As most know M/T showed them off at PRI. You have the BUBBA Dragster Radial & the 30 X 9 PBR.

I plan on trying the 30 X 9 PBR on my car. While I run the 29.5 X 10.5 mounted on a 9" wide rim, it's a tight fit. I think the 9" tires will fit better & should be able to run them on my 10" wide spare rims for testing.

Let's hear if you're going to give them a shot or are you going to take the wait & see approach.

I think too many bracket racers are stuck in their old ways, I was that person also. IMO, radials & EFI is the future of bracket racing. Times are changing with technology. I wanted to be pro-active with my racing program. Yes, there was some teething pains, but I took off where I left off. Winning rounds, races & improving my racing program!

Since I had always run the Goodyear 9x30 radials, I'll probably give them a shot.
The 9x28 PBR's took everything I threw at them.
I'm still on an 8" wheel.

I thought you were running the M/T 29.5 x 10.5 PBRs also?

I am currently on the 29.5's
I tried the 9x28's before the 10.5's were available, last 2 (3?) sets have been 10.5's
Was on Goodyear radial 9x30's since 2000 / 2001?

Will need to section the frame rails and cut some wheel house to fit 10" wheels.

was not aware MT were doing a 30x9 PBR .
Be worth a look dependant on actual diameter .
I have only ever run radials on my Satellite and on my 32 Coop only tried rags once .
I have run the 29.5 since 2018 , 28s or 275s before that .
Sure wish they would do a true 29" radial . Having run the Hoosier 30x9 , 30x10.5 and have Goodyear 30x9 @ 29 1/2" I know the Satellite works better on the slightly shorter tyre . And no I am not fitting 4.30s as it is a dirty street car .

Thanks for the clarification Goob.

Tex, sorry I missed your post until now.

What little I know about the 30x9 PBR. I think it's supposed to be a true 30" tire. Both of the new tires mentioned are coming out sometime next year.

As for a shorter PBR, they already have a 28X9; as you may already know.
