A high-performance race and track tyre, the Metzeler RACETEC RR F 120/70R17 58W is engineered for short-track sprints and aggressive circuit use. It targets riders seeking maximum grip and predictable feedback in race conditions, with a carcass tuned for rapid direction changes and traction out of corners. The design emphasises a responsive contact patch and quick steering response to aid lap time consistency and rider confidence.

The tyre features a race-oriented tread profile and compound that prioritises heat build-up management and consistent operating temperature. Its construction yields excellent cornering stability and focused braking performance, while channels in the tread support effective water evacuation under mixed conditions. The layout supports even wear across the centre and shoulders for repeatable behaviour through extended track sessions.

For the rider this tyre delivers precise feedback, stable braking distance and enhanced control at the limit, helping to shuttle lap times reliably. You will notice improved steering response and a firm feel in high-speed changes of direction, which benefits both experienced racers and trackday enthusiasts. Optimised contact patch and consistent mileage under hard use make it a practical choice for competitive track work.
