10″ King Tyre Set K00 Slick 100/85R10, 120/80R10
The Medium‑Compound Edge: Balanced Grip Meets Durability
Dominate the dry track with confidence. The K00 Medium gives you the ideal middle ground — blistering grip out of corners, strong mid‑corner traction, and extended life to last more heat cycles. When Super Soft wears too fast and Hard lacks bite, the Medium puts your lap times in the sweet spot.
Balanced Performance – Enough stick for aggressive lean and hard braking, yet more durable than softer compounds.
Predictable Feedback – Stable under heat, giving consistent feel lap after lap.
Versatile Use – Works well across a range of track temperatures and surfaces. Perfect for sprint races and endurance segments alike.
Race‑Proven Engineering – Same zero‑tread slick core, radial steel belt, and carcass design found in other K00 compounds. Optimised for grip, temperature control, and feedback.
Strong grip without frequent tyre changes
Consistency over whole sessions
A go‑to compound when conditions are neither cold nor blistering hot
⚠️ Track Use Only — Built for dry circuits. Not for wet or road conditions.
| Parameter | Recommended / Estimate |
|---|---|
| Type / Use | Full slick (track only, dry surface) |
| Compound | Medium (“M”) — balanced between grip and durability |
| Size | 100 / 85 R10 (front size in K00 lineup) |
| Condition | Suggested Pressure | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Cold / Before Warmers / Pre‑Session | ~ 0.8 – 1.2 bar | This allows room for pressure rise during heating; don’t start too high. |
| Hot / Race Temperature | ~ 1.4 – 1.6 bar | Target this range under load / during laps as starting point. |
| Tyre Surface Temp Target | ~ 85‑95 °C | A typical working temperature for slicks in this class. |
If tyre edges feel overheated or tearing, reduce hot pressure ~0.1 bar.
If the tyre “feels soft” in the middle or has excessive flex, increase pressure slightly.
Warm up slowly—use tyre warmers or gradual pace to avoid thermal shock.
Monitor wear pattern: center-heavy wear suggests overpressure; edge-heavy suggests underpressure.
Adjust within ±0.1 bar increments rather than big jumps.
| Parameter | Suggested / Estimate |
|---|---|
| Usage | Track use only, dry surface (slick) |
| Compound Baseline | Medium (or your target hardness) |
| Hot Pressure Estimate | ~ 1.4 to 1.7 bar (≈20.3 to 24.7 psi) |
| Cold / Pre‑session Pressure | ~ 1.0 to 1.3 bar — leave headroom for pressure rise |
| Target Tyre Surface Temp | ~ 85‑95 °C under load |
| Adjustment Guidance | – If edges overheat/tear → reduce hot pressure – If centre feels soft / tyre seems over‑flexed → increase pressure – Use tyre warmers / gradual heat ramp |
