ROADTEC Z8 INTERACT ensures peace of mind in the hardest situations, in the cold or wet, providing ideal handling for true riding pleasure.

Riding easiness, comfort, predictability, easy turn in, and progressivity in lean, are provided by the interaction of sport touring profiles with the Greek π tread pattern and the patented Interact technology.

Interact is the multi-tension technology allowing Metzeler tyres to offer the best performance in all conditions; the differentiated tensioning of the steel belt underneath the tread compound gives a tailored performance.

  • High steel belts winding tension in the center reduces compound movement and increases the stability of the footprint area which reduces wear and ensures high speed stability
  • Low steel belts winding tension creates more flexibility and energy absorption, the compound increases the temperature and becomes softer, offering more grip while leaning

The variable winding process of the 0° steel belt guarantees a progressive behavior at different lean angles without discontinuity of performance.

Best performance till the last mile, adaptability to different conditions and comfort during a long ride, and agility in maneuvers even with worn tyre are provided by a unique combination of high silica compound with the Interact technology.
 
High silica compounds are known for their longevity and mechanical resistance to abrasion but our patented mixing process is able to further boost this characteristic by increasing its dispersion inside the polymeric matrix and achieving an incomparable level of homogeneity.

This sophisticated compound is then coupled with a high tension 0° steel belt in the center portion of the tyre that provides firm support, reduces compound movement and prevents overheating, contributing to reducing the wear of the tyre and hence increasing the mileage.
