METZELER - 3888500 - Racetec™ RR Tire - Hard Compound
At 200 mm wide, this Racetec RR is the broadest rear in Metzeler's hard-compound racing lineup, sized for high-horsepower sport bikes that need maximum contact patch to put power down. The K3 hard compound is built for longevity and consistent performance over long runs, so the extra grip doesn't come at the cost of a tire that only lasts a track day. Metzeler calibrates tread pattern, profile, and structure together for precision and high-speed stability, and the tire is W-rated for speeds of 168+ mph — racing grip whether you're on a circuit or a fast road.
