Question White Paint Markings on Drag Tyres

Can anyone tell me why drag cars paint a white strip and white band on the sides of the tyres? I noticed at WSID that some top fuellers had it, but others didn't. Just curious to know what it's for :

PS I'm amazed by the shape the tyres get at the end of the strip, check the first pic out!
