Metzeler Sportec M9 RR Front Tyre 120/70 ZR-17 M/C 58W Tubeless

Outstanding handling

Strong structure
METZELER SPORTEC™ M9 RR innovative chord technology allows more room for structural rubber, that enhances the dynamic performance without effecting carcass overall stiffness.
 
Great riding pleasure
 The strong structure provides a quick and predictable response to riding inputs whilst at the same time delivers an enjoyable, smooth and relaxed riding experience.

Quick warm-up, impressive wet response

The first Supersport tyre with full silica rubber compound
Thanks to innovative mixing processes and to ultra-fine silica, SPORTEC™ M9 RR is the first Supersport tyre featuring high-silica and full-silica compounds for both front and rear sizes.
 
High grip since the first corner
 SPORTEC™ M9 RR performs optimally also at low temperature. The warm-up speed allows you to confidently enjoy your first corner.
 
Supersport tread design optimised for water drainage
 The sharp central contact patch efficiently moves standing water into the adjacent longitudinal grooves. The grooves deliver outstanding stability, by draining more water as speed increases and as the weather worsens.

Plenty of grip to face tough challenges

High cornering grip, large consistency over the entire profile
The Cap&Base dual-compound layout consists of a soft side compound to promote high cornering grip, supported by a harder layer to ensure consistency and thermal balance. Regardless of how wet the surface is or the asphalt grade, significant grip is delivered.
 
Great stability on straight, superb confidence at full lean
The directional centre grooves deliver stability when upright. Mid-lean grooves maximise the grip to deliver flawless feedback when cornering. The slick shoulders further enhance your riding confidence when at full lean.

Maximum performance throughout the entire tyre lifespan

Perfected thermal balance
Innovative high-silica and full-silica rubbers prevent overheating and preserve tyre integrity for the maximum performance throughout the entire lifespan.
 
Extended dual-compound
Dual-compound layout optimises abrasion resistance and extends mileage by more than 10%*
