Nitto’s NT01 is a no-compromise, 100-level treadwear competition radial engineered for the serious track enthusiast who demands razor-sharp response, massive dry grip, and repeatable lap times. Designed as a street-legal R-compound tire, the NT01 bridges the gap between ultra-high-performance summer tires and full slicks—delivering race-proven performance with the convenience of DOT compliance.
Built on Nitto’s motorsport DNA, the NT01 features a high-modulus, semi-slick tread pattern with a massive contact patch and minimal void ratio for maximum rubber-to-road connection. The asymmetric, semi-slick center rib ensures precise steering feedback and stability at triple-digit speeds, while the large, rigid shoulder blocks provide exceptional lateral grip during hard cornering. A competition-grade silica-reinforced compound optimizes heat cycling and grip consistency, allowing the tire to come up to temperature quickly and maintain performance over extended track sessions.
Whether you're chasing grid positions at the autocross, carving canyons, or dominating HPDE days, the NT01 transforms your car into a precision instrument—offering predictable breakaway, lightning-fast transient response, and confidence-inspiring braking traction. Not for the faint of heart—or winter driving—this is a purpose-built weapon for drivers who live for the apex.
