slick temperatures on track

Peter_VIE · 05-19-2019, 07:05 AM

Does anyone know tables for suggested temperatures for Pirrelly slicks? I am using 265/645-18 DM and had 70 - 90 degrees Celsius during trackday, which I think is quite high. Pirelli web site does not show anything, my dealer has no validated info either.

Pirelli is much more focused on max pressure for optimum operation (29-30psi hot).

That said they publish 160-220 degrees F as optimum operating range so you are comfortably within that target.
