Tires RIKEN or Barum

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

Barum Tires

Le avevo 4 stagioni sulla Fiat punto del 2008, la mia prima auto.

Mi sono trovato molto bene, l'ho tenuta dal 2019 al 2022, sono andato anche sulla neve in montagna, in nevicata piena, e ho avuto zero problemi.

Pros: Mi sono trovato bene
Cons: Poi ho grippato
Vehicle: Fiat Punto
Mileage: 75000 km

Barum Tires

Avute per 4 anni su una c3. Uso misto, in ordine: collina, citt\u00e0, autostrada a velocit\u00e0 sostenuta.

In inverno nevica poco da me, ma le abbiamo testate un paio di settimane fa (vecchie di 4 anni) e siamo usciti senza problemi dal vialetto sterrato e innevato.

Pros: si sono comportate bene
Vehicle: Citroen C3

Barum Tires

I got new Barums for this winter and they’re doing absolutely fine (also on a Golf). Recently done 110 on snowed highway while everyone else was in the right lane doing like 80 and they felt perfectly stable. On wet road they also seem to do well.

Pros: perfectly stable, do well

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

RIKEN Tires

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

Der einzige Reifen der mir mal bei 240kmh auf der Autobahn geplatzt ist war einer von Barum (wohl eine Tochtermarke von Continental) hatte damals der Vorbesitzer des Fahrzeuges gekauft und montiert

Cons: Reifen geplatzt bei 240kmh
