ZIPP Goodyear XPLR Inter Tire

ZIPP Goodyear XPLR Inter Tire

Your tire is your connection to the ground, making tires a critical component for speed. That is why Zipp designed its XPLR tires in a radically different process: Start with an ideal gravel tire and create a wheel around it. Enter two great gravel options in the Goodyear Fitment Series for Zipp, the Zipp Goodyear XPLR SLICK and Zipp Goodyear XPLR INTER.

The ZIPP Goodyear XPLR Inter is part of gravel-game-changing wheel and tire system. This versatile gravel tire is designed for Zipp’s ultra-wide 303 XPLR S and SW wheelsets to provide a fast wheel and tire combination on any gravel surface. Capable in dry to mixed conditions. Wheel systems for gravel today are mostly slightly stronger versions of what exists on the road: light, stiff, narrow, and aero. The problem is that riding on gravel induces harmful vibrations that slow you down and increase fatigue over time. In addition, gravel tires generally negate the aerodynamic advantages of traditionally narrow road rims.

The new ZIPP XPLR wheel and tire system takes an entirely new approach and optimizes the dimensions of the components to achieve the fastest setup on the market. Besides unsurpassed aero benefits for gravel, the resulting width of the rim also enables lower tire pressure, which helps filtering out vibrations for extra energy savings. The XPLR Inter offers the most versatile gravel setup with 303 XPLR and can be ridden in most situations. Its tight pattern in the center provides fast rolling, while the bigger side blocks ensure grip and confidence when cornering. The light and supple construction enhances ride quality. M:Wall reinforcements in the sidewalls provide puncture protection against cuts and pinch flats, allowing the rider to get away with the lowest possible air pressure. And finally, the dimension of tire beads is designed to ensure convenient assembly and safe retention on Zipp TSS rims. Only approved tires can be used on the XPLR wheels.
