Only if your series requires it. Many formula, open-wheel and international series require FIA 8859-2024, while US club and regional series that follow Snell rules accept Snell SA2025 alone. For example, the Bell XR7 PRO is Snell SA2025 only, and the XR7 ULTRA Carbon carries both ratings. Check your rulebook before you buy. Shop Snell SA2025 helmets.
