Kenda SPT-2 KR09

Drifters: We have been using this 195/50/15 tyre on Evan Commane's Toyota Corolla on 8" rims. It has been a very successful combination.

Evan was instantly impressed with the Kenda. It had more Grip, Speed and Enduance than any other tyre previously used. One thing he noticed straight away was the tyres ability to stay on line and give a very controlable slide.

We have not had any delamination or chunking off, they burn down beautifully and last up to two sessions.

Kaiser KR20

The Kenda KR20 like all other Kenda products has been a great tyre. It is predomiantly a good wearing passenger tyre that offers a good allround performance. It is not as sticky as some due to its durable compound but works well in wet and dry conditions.

Advanced compound offers stability and grip performance.
High-density endless nylon cap plies increase high-speed carcass integrity and enhances uniformity.
Additional rim protector for extra layer of defense.
Extensive range in V/W performance categories.
Demonstrates excellent acceleration and braking performance.
