Tires Shinko or VITOUR
Running them on my VW. 245/40/17. 2 autox and a track day and just worn off the sword fish in the tread.
Pros: good wear, track day
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
I avoided the 805 big blocks because of typically rough and noisy street use. Figured they’d be great offroad. Tried some 705s and they were great street tires but really loose and washy offroad. I’m on the 700s now and I’m really liking them. Closest thing to a 50/50 tire I’ve ever had.
Pros: great street tires
Cons: loose and washy offroad
the tires are vitour formula spec z.
Answer to your question, the "best" 200tw tire in the market right now is the Vitour P1.
Pros: best 200tw tire
The Vitour P1 is available in your size. Fastest, long lasting tire out right now. Usable in the rain if you diky your car too.
Pros: fastest, long lasting
Cons: usable in rain
On the Vitours so at least for now prefer them ????
Pros: prefer them
Vitour P1 is the hot new tire to run. As fast as the fastest, really stiff sidewall to keep you somewhat taught on a oversized tire, and longer lasting than any other top tier 200tw tires.
Pros: fast, stiff sidewall
Cons: oversized tire
I just finished a coaching session with my friends 992 Carrera S on some new Vitour P1's and was very impressed with how they handled 20+ minute sessions. The heat tolerance is probably the best characteristic, especially compared to the yokes! The P1 just doesn't fall off on grip like that, they are very consistent and don't mind the high heat of the track.
Pros: consistent grip, high heat tolerance
Cons: compared to the yokes
Vehicle:
Porsche
I came across the Vitour Galaxy R1s — they’re V-rated, which is cool, but I’m not sure if they’re DOT approved. From what I can tell, they’re made by a South African brand (possibly China-owned) and seem to be geared toward drift/race use.
Just wondering if anyone’s actually run these? How’s the grip and overall quality? I’m aiming for a tire that can handle daily driving and still be fun in the corners without dropping $500+ on Avons CR6ZZ
Pros: V-rated tire
Cons: DOT approval uncertain
Vehicle:
Ford Mustang
Vitours are terrible cold and don't work well if your car doesn't generate enough heat.
Cons: terrible cold
