Proven across UK and European club motorsport, this tyre is a favourite for consistent lap-after-lap pace. It has featured for years in series such as BMW Compact Cup, MaX5, Civic Cup, M3 Cup and open-tyre championships, thanks to its stable performance over long stints and reassuring behaviour as temperatures rise.

• Consistent lap times - Predictable, repeatable grip that inspires confidence through long sessions and multiple heat cycles.
• Wet weather capability - Strong water dispersion for confidence in rain-soaked track evenings and British road conditions.
