🧠 Technology & Engineering Excellence
1. “Between Slick and Semi-Slick” Race Construction
The R31 combines characteristics of both full slick and semi-slick tyres, giving a massive contact patch and extreme dry grip, while retaining enough grooves for limited wet performance in moderate and light rain conditions.
2. Ultra-Strength Carcass Polymer
Carcass made with ultra-strength polymer significantly improves driving safety and maintains structural integrity under racing loads and heat cycles.
3. High-Strength Sidewall Design
Sidewalls use high-strength materials to deliver fast steering response and precise handling feedback — essential for racing drivers making quick directional changes at the limit.
4. Central Large Block & Shoulder “Big/Small” Block Design
-
Central large block design enhances high-speed stability in both straight-line and steering transitions.
-
Big and small block shoulder design improves “fast slick grip” and provides sustainable, stable grip during long stints and repeated hard cornering.
5. 3D Chamfer & Open Angle Grooves
-
3D chamfer in cross and longitudinal grooves reduces noise levels and improves comfort for the driver over long sessions.
-
Open angle groove design assists water dispersion, improving drainage and hydroplaning resistance in moderate and light rain competition conditions.
