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.

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

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

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.

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.

as a tire, they seem slightly dubious as far as the 200tw rating goes (although a052s are super low-duro too). they don't work well on heavy cars and from a buddy who runs them in practice/at non-scca events, they seem to overheat/slide a lot (corresponds to what the GRM article states). but they for sure are quick.

I got a set of winter tires from them, at first they were perfect but 3 of them lost the shape (they were not perfectly round) just after 1 year and 30k KM and car started shaking progressively. They were on the car all the time and actively driven on. So it wasn't user error, the car did not sit in the same place more than 4-5 days in a row. It was just poor build quality.

In australia we sold them as a budget brand, they were noisy, slippery and very average however as a drift tyre, i have no idea.
