Why AR-1 can make sense
AR-1 is generally compared by drivers who want more performance focus than a normal road tyre. It can suit track days, club events, hill climbs and spirited driving, but tyre noise, wet-road behaviour, warm-up, wear rate, heat cycles and alignment sensitivity need to be considered.
Fitment checks before ordering
Before fitting AR-1, check the tyre placard, current sidewall, load index, speed rating, wheel width, offset, guard clearance, suspension setup and old tyre wear.
