Load Rating: 67Position: RearRim Size: 18Speed Rating: (W)Tire Application: SportTire Construction: RadialTire Size: 140/70-18Tire Type: StreetThe new Z8 Roadtec Interact with its Multi Zone Tension technology, new updated tread profiles, and functional tread pattern is set to take the pinnacle of the sport touring tire class. A final footprint area 8% wider as compared to its predecessor due to the variation of steel belt tensions and a strategically placed tread pattern which optimizes pressures in the footprint area. The Roadtec Z8 Interact achieves its best-in-segment mileage and optimal wet performance throughout the tires life thanks to an innovative tread pattern, a widened and more elliptical footprint, and a host of wear-resistant technologies not normally seen in motorcycle tires. Metzelers new patented tread pattern reduces front tire land-sea ratio to 11% and the rear tire land-sea ratio of 13%. Strategically placed longitudinal central grooves provide ideal drainage for more than 3/4 of all lean angles in the wet. The remaining tread grooves work to add tread flexibility, extending the footprint for stability in the dry. The updated design of the Roadtec Z8 Interact improves wear regularity which gives riders the benefit of a consistent riding performance across the tires entire life. Tubeless (TL). W-rated for speeds up to 168 mph or (W)-rated for speeds of 168+ mph.
