MAKING SENSE OF e13 TIRES
Loaded with acronyms - the tyre choices from e-thireteen can be quite confusing even with only a small amount of models. We do our best to break it down for you - so you'll be on the way to getting the right choice of tyre.
2 TREAD OPTIONS
All Terrain - An aggressive tyre tread without zero compromise on grip. Fast rolling center blocks and supple casings for a nice damped ride. The unique accordion texture on the lugs give it a sure footed feel when leaned hard into corners.
Semi Slick - Speed and grip and not like what you think semi-slicks are good for. These obviously have the cut down center tread with a hard compound and closer spacing but they still offer excellent climbing and braking traction. It retains the big juicy side lugs of the All-Terrain
