Goodyear/Zipp XPLR SLICK Tubeless Tire

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"If you're racing or just trying to go as fast as possible on dry gravel, this tire delivers. The center slick flies, and the compound gives great grip when it counts. Installation took a bit of patience, but once it's on, it transforms how fast your setup feels."

Created for high-speed gravel performance, the Goodyear/Zipp XPLR SLICK Tubeless Tire is the final piece of Zipp’s performance-driven XPLR system. Optimized for Zipp’s 303 XPLR S and SW rims, the XPLR SLICK reduces rolling resistance while maintaining control in a range of dry and hardpack conditions. The true slick centerline rolls fast and efficiently, while the lightly textured shoulders provide bite through curves and cambered gravel surfaces.

Goodyear’s Dynamic:UHP compound adds durability and grip, tuned for extended wear and confident traction at high speeds. Meanwhile, the supple casing soaks up trail vibrations for a smoother, more controlled ride. M:Wall protection in the sidewalls shields against cuts and impact damage, supporting lower pressures on rough terrain. Dual Angle Beads ensure a secure tubeless seal with a clean interface against Zipp’s wide internal rim profiles.

This tire is ideal for dry gravel races, long mixed-surface endurance rides, or anyone seeking maximum aero advantage on firm terrain. Paired with a precision wheelset, the XPLR SLICK becomes a speed weapon for gravel athletes.
