What it is: the ultimate high performance DOT street legal racing tire derived from our extensive experience and knowledge gained in the highly competitive SCCA Trans-Am racing series. Who's it for: designed for the owner for whom winning is a major consideration.

Competition ready
Minimal break in required. Molded to 4/32nds of an inch tread depth. No shaving required.

Best in R1 DOT street legal class dry grip
Our ultimate DOT, street legal 'R' type tread compound that money can buy. The g-Force R1 tread compound formulation offers quick warm-up, superior cornering power and consistent grip lap after lap. Don't give up anything.

Razor sharp steering response
Split second steering response and precise turn-in enable steering precision at the track.

Easy to drive at the grip limit
Predictable grip character that's forgiving, easy to drive at the grip limit, and confidence inspiring for the quickest lap times in amateur road race competition.

Symmetric, non-directional tread design
Can be used at different vehicle wheel postions, and rotated in both directions, to maximize tread life with an even wear profile for the most possible laps at the race track.

ETEC System™ (Equal TEnsion Containment System)
Excellent strength, consistent footprint shape and maximized tread contact area under high-speed conditions.

Rim protector
Improved wheel damage protection.

Two full-width steel belts
Tread crown stiffened longitudinally and laterally to help keep the tread area from distorting under high acceleration, braking and cornering force loads.

g-Control™ Sidewall Inserts help resist deflection
Generates tremendous cornering force.

Special racing radial nylon carcass construction
High speed stability and control, plus more consistent cornering performance even at higher temperatures on track.

Heat Cycling
Competition tires are built with a highly sophisticated tread compound. This compound is capable of sustaining traction throughout a much wider temperature range, but is also extremely sensitive to the first heat cycle of its use. During this cycle the tread compound stretches as it heats.

The Discount Tire heat cycling system ensures consistent results by maintaining key conditions during the heat cycle process. The system generates uniform heating and progressive temperature build up throughout the tread. The benefit of this process is a tread compound that lasts longer and provides better traction. All competition tire manufacturers recommend a heat cycling service. Have your competition tires heat cycled today and be race ready!
