Shanghai, China – September 3, 2026 – RYDANZ officially unveiled the new RS2 ultra-high-performance tyre in Shanghai, bringing together global partners, distributors, automotive professionals, professional drivers and media representatives to witness the official launch of the brand’s latest performance tyre.

Built around the philosophy of “Track-Bred. Street-Released.”, the RS2 is not simply a product designed to chase performance figures. It represents RYDANZ’s continued effort to combine motorsport experience, product development and the demands of real-world driving.

Developed Through Motorsport, Built for Real Driving

Motorsport has long played an important role in the development of RYDANZ products.Through continued involvement in drifting, circuit driving and other high-performance environments, RYDANZ has accumulated valuable experience in evaluating tyre behaviour under demanding conditions.

For RYDANZ, the value of motorsport goes beyond competition results.

It provides an environment where grip, braking, steering response, structural support and consistency during continuous dynamic driving can all be tested under significant load.

The RS2 was developed from this philosophy.

Featuring a track-grade compound, the RS2 has been engineered around the demands of modern high-performance vehicles, with a focus on grip, handling, braking and high-speed stability.

However, RYDANZ did not simply take a track tyre and put it on the road.

Instead, RYDANZ set out to translate motorsport experience into a high-performance tyre designed for everyday road use.

Performance That Keeps Up With the Car

Modern performance vehicles continue to evolve.

Greater power, faster acceleration, instant torque from performance EVs and increasing vehicle weight are placing new demands on tyres.

Today, a high-performance tyre must do more than generate grip. It must also provide confidence under braking, support through corners, stability at speed and clear feedback to the driver, while remaining suitable for everyday road use.

These requirements formed an important part of the RS2 development process.

From initial steering response to continuous cornering, rapid transitions and high-speed driving, the RS2 is designed to deliver feedback that feels clear, stable and predictable.

Rather than focusing on a single dimension of performance, RYDANZ has developed the RS2 to achieve a broader balance between dynamic capability, wet-road confidence and everyday usability.

Its velvet sidewall finish and RS2-exclusive motorsport-inspired graphics also give the tyre a distinctive visual identity, extending its performance character beyond engineering and into design.

For RYDANZ, the idea is simple:

True performance is not only about going faster. It is about staying in control.

Real Perspectives From Global Markets

During the launch event, RYDANZ founder Wang Qiang, Tatsuhiro Shibata, President of SHIBATA Co., Ltd., members of the RYDANZ product team, and partners from markets including Taiwan and the Middle East shared their perspectives on the RS2 from the viewpoints of brand development, motorsport, distribution and real-world driving.

As a long-term RYDANZ partner in Japan, Tatsuhiro Shibata shared his impressions of the RS2 based on his extensive background in automotive modification, motorsport and performance driving.

His perspective focuses on real-world driving performance, including steering response, consistency through continuous corners and predictability during rapid transitions.

Together, these characteristics contribute to something essential in performance driving: a tyre that allows the driver to understand what the vehicle is doing and remain in control.

Sean Lee, founder of Purist Group, also attended the launch event and delivered remarks, joining guests and partners from different markets in witnessing the official debut of the RYDANZ RS2.

Partners and users from different markets also shared their perspectives from retail, motorsport, consumer and everyday driving backgrounds.

Despite their different experiences, one theme remained consistent throughout the event:

Real-world experience.

Because for a high-performance tyre, product value cannot be defined by laboratory data alone.

It ultimately needs to be validated by real cars, real roads and real drivers.

RS2 Marks a New Beginning

The official launch of the RS2 represents more than the addition of a new ultra-high-performance tyre to the RYDANZ portfolio.

It also reflects a clearer direction for the brand: continuing to transform motorsport experience into product capability designed for real-world driving, while building a closer connection between track development and street performance.

Additional RS2 sizes are already under development, enabling the product to serve an increasingly broad range of high-performance vehicles.

RYDANZ will also continue to validate and refine the RS2 through motorsport, professional testing and feedback from drivers across different global markets.

From the track, but never limited to the track.

From Shanghai, the RS2 is officially released to the street.
