Anyone who is involved in racing will be aware of the enormous importance of the tires used.
The fact that it's not just the tread that counts, but above all the right rubber compound to suit the weather, track and vehicle, is something that every racing newcomer realizes when the old hands literally drive around their ears. Anyone who has had the opportunity to try out the legendary PMT tires immediately realizes the enormous difference in tire performance.
The Italian company PMT (Pauselli Modell Tyres), which has been active since 1990, was previously only active in the RC car and the popular Italian minibike sector.
With their entry into the scooter sector, they have ad hock secured a top position among the favorite tires of TOP riders. The PMT tires are available in perfect compounds for the various ground, weather and temperature conditions.
Slick, compound: hard
The slick with a hard compound is ideal for tracks with high asphalt temperatures and heavy use due to many turns and braking maneuvers. The hard compound is the most abrasion-resistant and can therefore be used very well in endurance / long-distance races. The warm-up phase for the optimum operating temperature (~ 80° C) is significantly longer with this compound than with the "medium" or "soft" compound.
The recommended air pressure for the front is 1.2-1.3 bar and 1.4-1.9 bar for the rear.
Slick, compound: medium
The medium bridges the gap between the hard and durable compound and the extremely sticky but also quickly wearing soft compound. The medium therefore covers a very wide range of applications. Its optimum operating temperature is ~ 75°C and, like the hard compound, requires a longer break-in period than the soft compound to get up to temperature.
The recommended air pressure for the front is 1.2-1.3 bar and for the rear between 1.4-1.9 bar.
Slick, compound: soft
The soft PMT compound offers full grip even at lower temperatures. It wears out correspondingly quickly at higher temperatures and then no longer offers its full grip level. However, it reaches its optimum operating temperature of 70°C very quickly.
The recommended air pressure for the front is 1.2-1.3 bar and 1.4-1.9 bar for the rear.
Slick, rain
With the rain slick, PMT offers a new interpretation of an intermediate. Based on the rubber compound of the pure rain tire, an intermediate with a slick tread pattern has been created. Ideal for changeable weather with an equal proportion of wet and dry sections.
The recommended air pressure for the front is 1.2-1.3 bar and 1.4-1.9 bar for the rear.
Rain Racing
The rain tire from PMT plays in the top league of rain experts for the circuit.
Anyone who has fitted this tire will need a good excuse if they fail to achieve a good position...
The recommended air pressure for the front is 1.2-1.3 bar and for the rear between 1.4-1.9 bar.
Drag Race
The Drag Race tires from PMT are ideal for all quartermile engines.
No grip is lost and all power is transferred to the asphalt without slippage.
But this also means that there is no mercy for the clutch or gearbox...
