Tires Achilles or RIKEN

RIKEN Tires

Tires like the Riken Raptor are a soft tire and performance minded, but not full on track tire (300tw). They perform quite well, but at the same time, are dirt cheap.

Pros: perform quite well
Cons: not full on track
Vehicle: Mazda

RIKEN Tires

In my experience the best bang for your buck summer tire is the Riken Raptor. They're about $100 a pop and have great dry grip. Downside is that they're not amazing in very wet conditions.

Pros: great dry grip
Cons: not amazing in wet

RIKEN Tires

Riken Raptor ZR A/S RF. These tires were under $400 for a SET (about $86 per tire). 300tw. Aggressive tire pattern. And they are a solid performer for canyon carving. I drove them about 4000 miles over a week this past summer around MATG including some pretty aggressive backroad driving and they held up VERY well. Insanely well given the price.

Pros: solid performer, aggressive pattern
Cons: grip suffers a bit
Mileage: 4000 km

Eu am Riken Snow pe mașina de la lucru, pe uscat zici că e pe șine, nu zice pâs dar pe ud am niște emoții de nu-i adevărat ???? nu doar odată era să fac piruete cu ea la viteze de nimic și stai că astea-s bune că am avut pe masina de la lucru inainte un set blanao de viatti brina, dădeam scârb 1-2-3 pe ud cu 1.4 aspirat, babaiatule...

Pros: pe uscat zici ca e pe sine
Cons: emotii pe ud

Achilles Tires

Recently bought a used Subaru Crosstrek for my daughter, and CarMax clearly had put new tires on them — specifically, Achilles SportTouring A/S.

I know nothing about this brand or model, so I can’t say what their wet or snow performance might be (or any other parameters, for that matter).

Vehicle: Subaru

Achilles Tires

Just realized Carmax put a new set of these on the 2020 Mustang I bought from them.  Easily the worst performing tire in the rain that I have ever encountered.  Instant hydroplaning on concrete, when there isn't even much of any water.  At least knowing how terribly cheap these tires are, I may not feel bad replacing them before their end of trade life.  Dangerous!  Avoid!

Cons: worst performing tire, dangerous
