160/60zr-17 Bridgestone Battlax S21 Hypersport Rear Tire

The next iteration of the Hypersport S20 tire, the Bridgestone Battlax S21 tire delivers everything the S20 offered - and so much more. UltimatEYE development technology allows developers to simulate speeds of up to 250MPH and 60 degrees of lean angle to accurately visualize the contact patch, allowing them to see exactly how much grip the tire has and implement improvements accordingly. Some of these improvements include a dual-compound front tire, a triple-compound rear, and an improved tread pattern, all culminating in an increase of about 30% in dry grip over the S20 without sacrificing any wet grip. Whether youre a canyon carver or track day enthusiast, this tire is rated to about 170MPH to give you the best performance when you need it most. Dry grip and wear life significantly improved without sacrificing wet performance. 3D cross grooves designed to optimize rigidity and improve contact with the road. Triple compound rear tire (5LC) with revised profile provides improved stability and durability. New Enhanced Micro-contact-patch Compound (EMC) technology used for both front and rear shoulder compounds. EMC increases grip potential and improves thermal stability to make sure the tire performance remains consistent as temps go up.
