R35 Slick

The Hoosier R35 Slick is a competition-oriented tire meticulously engineered for the demands of track environments. This tire caters to racers and performance enthusiasts seeking maximum grip and predictable handling in dry conditions. Its primary focus lies in delivering exceptional performance for circuit racing, time attack events, and high-performance track days.

The R35 compound is formulated to provide a high level of adhesion, allowing drivers to push their vehicles to the limit. As a slick tire, it forgoes any tread pattern, maximizing the contact patch with the track surface for superior grip. This design prioritizes dry performance and is not intended for use in wet conditions. The UTQG treadwear rating of 40 indicates an extremely soft compound, signifying that the tire is designed for ultimate grip at the expense of longevity.

Compared to other tires in the high-performance track/competition category, the Hoosier R35 stands out due to its uncompromising focus on dry grip and handling. It is a specialized tire intended for drivers who prioritize lap times and consistent performance in demanding track conditions. Hoosier has become the largest supplier of domestic circuit racing tires.
