Royal Black Racing Trac 245/45R17
The Royal Black Racing Trac is a high-performance all-season tyre built for passenger cars. It fits a 17-inch rim and carries a 245 mm section width with a 45 aspect ratio. The tyre is rated XL for extra load capacity and carries a 99 load index. It is sold as a new tyre only; the rim is not included.
Suits drivers wanting year-round grip
This tyre suits drivers who want reliable wet and dry traction in a single set of tyres. The W speed rating supports sustained speeds up to 168 mph. Buyers who need a dedicated winter tyre for severe snow and ice should look elsewhere. It is also not a run-flat design, so drivers requiring run-flat capability must choose a different model.
420 treadwear rating and 7/32 tread depth
The UTQG 420 AA rating indicates a treadwear score of 420 with top traction and temperature grades. The tyre ships with 7/32 inch of tread depth, offering solid initial grip. The overall diameter measures 25.7 inches. As tread wears down, wet braking performance will gradually decrease, signalling the need for replacement.
