Tires GOODRIDGE or VITOUR

I have these guys on my V8 SUV. Didn't give them much thought, was a good deal, and ride quality is much improved. Mine balanced fine and look pretty new after a year and almost 10,000km. I don't drag or track race, I'll floor it occasionally for a thrill and I drive probably 160km/h max on highways.

I seem to get 45k km from each full set of Goodride SA07s (215/45/ZR17). This is on a Subaru Legacy that spends most of its time above 80kph.

Having run a C6Z06 nationally, I know the struggle of having wide wheels and not a lot of tire choices. If I were still running it, I'd look at the Vitour P1s.

Running them on my VW. 245/40/17. 2 autox and a track day and just worn off the sword fish in the tread.

the tires are vitour formula spec z.

They look better than my Vitours I bought in may... 90 minutes of track day time and 7 asphalt autocross events.

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

Dobio sam goodride zimske sa autom znaci nebi ih najgorem neprijatelju preporucio, prva ledena kiša sa njima je bila iskustvo koje mi je dalo doznanja da je sava eskimo premium guma nasprema tog smeća.

I had a total blow out with one tire while pulling the trailer empty. Total miles on the tires was maybe 300 max. Now (2025), I have probably less than 1500 miles on the trailer and another Goodride tire needs replacing.

Meh. Stones until they're proven. The regular P1's were a bunch of hype, which I was looking forward to, then they didn't deliver.
