1. Are semi slick tires safe for wet roads?
Kingtyre K06 has a tread design that improves wet grip compared to full slicks but is best in dry or slightly damp conditions.
2. How do I choose the right compound?
Base your choice on track temperature, race duration, and riding style. Soft for cold/sprint races; hard for endurance/high temp tracks.
3. Do I need tire warmers?
Yes. Especially for soft and ultra-soft compounds—reach peak grip between 60–85°C.
4. What’s the shelf life?
3 years in proper storage. After first use, inspect every 4–6 months.
5. Can I use them daily on the street?
Yes, but they’re optimized for track—expect faster wear on rough asphalt or long commutes.
6. What PSI should I use for street riding?
Start with 32 psi front / 34 psi rear; adjust based on load and rider weight.
7. Can I mount them on stock sportbike wheels?
Yes—all sizes fit OEM 17-inch rims for most superbikes.
8. Do I need special balancing?
Standard wheel weights are fine. No race-only balance needed.
9. Will they overheat in traffic?
No, compounds are stable under normal road use, but prolonged idling may accelerate surface wear.
10. Do they come with wear indicators?
Yes, each tire has two wear bars to monitor usage safely.
