Features
Wet and Dry Grip
 High-grip tread compound dispersed in Solution SBR compound for enhanced grip in both wet and dry, plus uniform wear
Nylon cap and edge plies to maintain optimum footprint shape and grip at high speeds
Thermal Stability
Two-ply rayon casing construction for thermal stability at high speeds
Base compound to resist heat at high speeds
Special sidewall compound to protect casing plies and provide heat resistance at high speeds
Steering Response
Free floating steel cord side ply for sidewall rigidity, cornering stability, and steering response
Two-ply rayon casing for thermal stability at high speeds and sidewall rigidity when cornering
Operating Temperature
160 F to 220 F
Target Hot Inflation Pressure
High 30's to Low 40's (PSI)
Recommended Camber
2.0 degrees to -5.0 degrees
Maximizing Tire Life
The degree of negative camber required to get the most performance out of the RA1 can often lead to inside shoulder wear
To maximize tire life, the tire should be dismounted from the wheel and flipped (move inside shoulder to the outside) when the tire is about half way worn
Directional Tread
The directional nature of the RA1 tread pattern is only applicable for wet conditions to optimize water drainage. If they are being used in dry conditions, the direction of rotation does not matter. |
