265/660/18 GoodYear Slick tyre Touring Car

Product introduction

The GoodYear Slick Circuit 265/660/18 tyre is a competition tyre intended for exclusively circuit use, developed for racing touring cars, light prototypes and Radical applications. Formerly marketed under the name Dunlop, this GoodYear slick range is designed to offer a high level of grip, precision and consistency in dry track driving conditions.

Purpose of the part

A competition slick tyre provides a direct connection between the vehicle and the track. Its smooth tread maximizes the contact surface with the ground in order to improve traction, braking, support stability and cornering speed. The choice of compound makes it possible to adapt the behavior of the tyre to the track temperature, the type of vehicle, the duration of the stint and the desired level of grip.

Symptoms or consequences of a worn or unsuitable tire

• Loss of grip during acceleration, braking, or cornering.
• Extension of braking distances on track.
• Deterioration of steering precision and steering feel.
• Irregular wear linked to unsuitable pressure, geometry or compound.
• Decrease in lap performance and lack of consistency on relays.
• Increased risk of overheating, graining or premature degradation.

Benefits of replacement

• Retrouve un niveau d’adhérence optimal sur piste sèche.
• Improves traction and stability at high speeds.
• optimises vehicle behavior during braking and cornering.
• Allows you to adapt performance according to conditions thanks to the different compound available.
• Promotes better consistency of times during driving, testing or competitions.
• Suitable for circuit vehicles requiring a high-performance slick tyre in size 265/660R18.
