Nitto Nt01

Nitto NT01 DOT-Compliant Competition Tire
Race-Proven Grip, Street-Legal Precision: Dominate the Road Course

The Nitto NT01 is a DOT-approved competition tire designed for drivers who prioritize podium-level dry traction, heat resistance, and lap-time consistency on road courses, autocross circuits, or aggressive street driving. Featuring a near-slick tread pattern, advanced racing compound, and reinforced internal structure, the NT01 delivers uncompromising cornering speeds, razor-sharp steering response, and durability under extreme loads—bridging the gap between full-slick racing tires and street-legal performance.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Semi-Slick Tread Design: Maximizes rubber-to-road contact for explosive dry grip while retaining DOT compliance for limited street use.
• High-Traction Racing Compound: Engineered to withstand heat cycling and maintain consistent grip during prolonged track sessions.
• Reinforced Carcass & Steel Belts: Enhances stability at high speeds and reduces flex during hard cornering or braking.
• Variable Tread Depth: Balances dry-pavement adhesion with light wet-weather capability for mixed-condition versatility.
• Wide Lateral Grooves: Optimize heat dissipation to prevent overheating during aggressive laps.
• Motorsport-Ready Aesthetics: Bold sidewall branding and aggressive tread profile complement track-focused builds.

Performance Highlights:

• Track Dominance: Near-slick levels of dry adhesion for record-breaking cornering speeds and acceleration.
• Heat Resistance: Maintains grip integrity even under prolonged high-temperature stress.
• Street Compliance: DOT-approved for limited road use, ideal for driving to/from events.

Ideal For:

• Road course racers, time-attack vehicles, and high-horsepower builds (Chevrolet Corvette Z06, Nissan GT-R, Porsche 911 GT3).
• Drivers seeking a competitive edge in dry conditions without sacrificing street legality.
• Warm climates or controlled environments where heat management is critical.
