Tires DEXTER or VITOUR
for 200 TW I tried the vitour Tempesta p1 and it shocked me.. amazing grip with good price! its too good you wont beleive its 200 tw
Pros: amazing grip, good price
Longest lasting super 200 is the Vitour P1. Affordable, fun sizes, and they LAST a long time while keeping up with the top dogs. Got a set this year and I love them. Put 6,500 miles plus 25 AX runs and they've barely worn.
Pros: last a long time
Cons: barely worn
Mileage: 6500 km
Vitour Galaxy R1 155R15, $63.89 each
Why a solid rib down the center?
These are vintage VW beetle size, 15 inch rim 4.5 inch wide. FWIW they have good reviews on the seller's website
Pros: good reviews on website
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Beetle
Part number: 155R15
Vitour P1 for a long lasting 200tw that's only a hair behind the Hoosier. They also handle heat well, and come in some creative sizes
Pros: long lasting, handles heat
Sunday I'm doing my first event on the Vitour P1, moving from the Rival S 1.5. I'll report back.
Biggest thing on them is the sizes. They make weird sizes that can net you an advantage, especially on specific cars.
I've done about 1200 Street miles and it's a clearly faster tire. Hard as hell when cold. Like, the first mile or two is pretty bouncy. But settles in quickly just on street driving. I imagine the first lap will get enough heat in.
While I'd love to do an apples to apples size wise, the very availability of a 305 in a 15" tire at 200tw is a huge consideration. Like for like they could be slower, but the next widest 15" option is a 245" by the competitors' 200tw offerings. So, I'll post my results after Sunday's event.
The shorter overall OD can also help (or hurt) depending on gearing.
Pros: clearly faster tire
Cons: hard as hell when cold
Mileage: 1200 km
I just out a set on my daily and so far I really like them. I came from BFG Rivals. The P1 definitely grips harder.
They're very new so not a ton of data on them, but they seem to be running with the fastest tires, and supposedly are lasting longer while being cheaper to buy.
I've put about 1500 miles on mine so far and am impressed with the wear.
Pros: grips harder, lasting longer
Cons: very new, little data
Mileage: 2414 km
I dont care about road noise so i stick to Vitour Tempesta Enzo semi slicks, insane cornering stabilty, dry grip is phenomenal as well as steering response.
Pros: insane cornering stabilty
Cons: noisy at first
Mileage: 50000 km
I doubt those vitour are 200 they drive like 140 or even 100 TW.
Cons: drive like 100 TW
Vehicle:
Nissan
I tried P1s for autoX. P1s are in the hunt. They can keep up with competitive tires, but I think Yokes are probably a little bit better for overall. I'd give Yokes a slight advantage for forward bite, especially off the line and in cooler temperatures.
Pros: keep up with competitive tires
Cons: Yokes are probably better
I have them on my 2016 Colorado and they get flat spots and vibrate just From sitting over night???? don’t buy these they balance like trash too, I’m a tire technician and I change tires all the time and I can say these are the worst tires I ever tried to balance
Cons: flat spots, vibrate, balance bad
Vehicle:
Chevrolet Colorado
