Racetrack-only Metzeler Racetec RR Slick Rear K401 K1 NHS in 200/60R17 0 is a specialist slick designed exclusively for closed-course competition. It caters to riders and teams who demand maximum mechanical grip on dry circuits and accept the trade off of non-highway serviceability. This tyre is intended for sprint races and qualifying sessions where ultimate traction is the priority.

The tyre features a full slick surface for maximum contact patch and optimised carcass stiffness to preserve the tyre shape under acceleration. A race compound delivers rapid warm-up and high adhesion at operating temperature while lateral stability aids consistent lap performance. Braking distance is reduced under race conditions and cornering stability is engineered for aggressive lean angles.

Teams benefit from predictable heat build up and a strong mechanical grip that supports quicker lap times. This model provides controllable wear characteristics on track and clear feedback for setup adjustments.
