The Zeknova RS101 is a full slick competition tire engineered for maximum dry performance in closed-course motorsports environments. Featuring a soft 40 treadwear compound and a treadless slick design, the RS101 is developed for drivers who prioritize dry grip, responsive handling, and competitive lap performance.

Designed for professional and advanced drivers, the RS101 is suited for road racing, time attack, track days, high-performance driving schools, autocross, and other dry closed-course applications. Its soft compound is designed for rapid warm-up, while the reinforced construction and full slick contact surface provide responsive steering feedback, braking performance, and stability under demanding track conditions.

Full Slick Tread Design: Uses a treadless competition surface designed to maximize the available contact area with the track in dry conditions.

Soft 40TW Compound: Features a soft 40 treadwear compound developed to prioritize competition-level dry grip and performance.

Rapid Warm-Up: The soft compound is designed to reach its operating range quickly for demanding track and competition applications.

Maximum Dry Grip: Developed specifically for dry closed-course conditions where traction and vehicle control are the primary priorities.

Responsive Steering Feedback: Designed to provide precise response and predictable feedback during aggressive cornering and directional changes.

Dry Braking Performance: The slick contact surface and competition compound are designed to provide strong braking performance in appropriate dry track conditions.

Reinforced Construction: Competition-oriented construction provides support during high cornering loads, braking, and high-speed track driving.

High-Speed Stability: Designed to provide predictable behavior and stability during demanding closed-course driving.

Competition-Oriented Performance: Developed for road racing, time attack, autocross, track days, and other motorsports where outright dry performance is prioritized over street-oriented characteristics.

Competition Use Notice

For race track and off-road use only. Not intended for public street use.

The RS101 is a full slick tire designed for competitive dry-track applications. Slick tires can provide substantially reduced traction when used on wet or contaminated surfaces. Drivers are responsible for evaluating track conditions, maintaining appropriate tire pressures and temperatures, regularly inspecting their tires, and determining whether they remain suitable for continued competition use.

Why Choose Zeknova?

Zeknova develops performance tires with a focus on drifting, track driving, and competitive motorsports. The RS101 represents a dedicated dry-track option for drivers who require a full slick rather than a treaded or semi-slick competition tire.

With its soft 40TW compound, full slick contact surface, rapid warm-up characteristics, and competition-oriented construction, the Zeknova RS101 is designed for advanced drivers seeking maximum dry performance in road racing, time attack, autocross, and other closed-course motorsports.
