17" front runners

I am considering changing to a set of 17X4.5" front wheels. I see there is a standard 4.5" Racemaster and a 185/55-17 radial. The 185/55-17 is listed under the drag radials. Is it a front drive drag radial or a matching front to the rears?

Hello,

Thank you for your inquiry. Our front drag radials can be ran with or without our rear radials. But we do recommend that you run a radial tire in the rear if you are going to run our radial in the front. Our front and rear drag radials have matching tread patterns. We also have a bias ply dot that is a 4.5/26.0- 17. Here are links to both types of tires

Thanks,
The radial tire is the one i was more interested in. It is more of a street/strip car and I prefer the stability of a radial.

I didn't want to buy a set just to find out they were a drag radial for a front drive car.
