🧠 Technology & Engineering Excellence
1. High-Rigidity Shoulder Blocks
Provides improved cornering power and sharper steering response by maximising lateral grip.
2. Motorsport-Inspired Compound Options
Available in multiple compounds (depending on size) to suit both street and track drivers, allowing stronger heat management and extended grip under hard use.
3. Wide Circumferential Grooves
Channels water away efficiently, giving the NS-2R better wet performance than many tyres in its class, enhancing daily street usability.
4. Reinforced Sidewall
Reduces flex during high-speed cornering and offers stable performance during repeated hard braking.
5. Optimised Tread Contact Patch
Ensures consistent traction and even wear — delivering confidence during aggressive acceleration, mid-corner transitions and lap-after-lap performance.
