Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a sport tyre and a semi-slick?

A sport tyre like the NS-2R is made for fast road driving and has enough tread for wet conditions. A semi-slick like the AR-1 has very little tread and a soft compound that gives maximum grip on a dry track, but it wears faster and is less suited to rain.

Do semi-slicks need warming up to grip?

Yes, semi-slicks work best once the rubber has reached operating temperature. Drive a couple of easy laps first and check tyre pressures when the tyres are hot, as pressure rises while driving.
