What are the best DOT legal tires out there for running at the strip? I want to get more into drag racing this summer and want to give myself every advantage I can.

Looking for just DOT legal. Truck would be trailered or I'd throw them on at the track.
One of the tracks here has a rule about their "street" nights that all tires must be DOT legal.
30" tall the proper size for a 3.73 geared truck? Should make ~900-1000hp once she fires up and gets tuned in.
I went 10.5 @ 132 on the 30x14 with stock 3.73s. Most of the drag radials are 28-29" and will require you to turn some extra RPMs if you are trpping 120+. Guys have done it but I think the taller tire works a little better with stock gearing.
325/45r18 Hoosier DR2s are roughly 1/4” taller then the 30x14 cheaters and work very well. Seen 1.5s with them at 6700lbs both are great options though.
