Get Some Serious Grip with Vitour Tempesta P1 Tires

You folks that do autocross, time attack/time trial, and road course competition sure are blessed when it comes to tires. Thanks to sanctioning bodies mandating tires with a 200 minimum treadwear rating in classes for street-legal cars, tire manufacturers are falling all over themselves trying to make the stickiest 200TW tire in the entire world.

If you’re new to this kind of competition, a 200TW tire is essentially a street-legal, soft-compound tire with a high speed rating, usually W (168 MPH) or Y (186 MPH). The tire is designed to provide high levels of grip with higher tread life than a race-spec ‘R-Comp’ DOT tire. In other words, you can drive to the track, race, and drive home on the same set of tires.

One of the latest entrants in the 200TW tire market is the Vitour Tempesta P1. The radial tire features a race-grade polymer compound and an asymmetric tread pattern designed to maximize grip in the dry. The optimized contour, wide outer tread, and broad shoulders help distribute pressure evenly during cornering and minimize overheating for consistent grip and stability.

The Tempesta P1s handle heat exceptionally well and can recover quickly. Racers report improved performance as the tread wears down, transforming into a semi-slick with ample rubber left for consistently fast lap times. That’s a lot of performance for the price.

Other features include:
• Closely spaced grooves on the inboard of the tread and twin circumferential grooves for water displacement and resistance to hydroplaning
• Two layers of polyester cord plies and reinforced sidewalls improve steering feedback and responsiveness
• Double-layer steel belts provides a strong, lightweight foundation
• Two-ply nylon reinforcement boosts high-speed performance and stability

Vitour Tempesta P1 Tires are available in a variety of sizes in 15-, 16-, 17-, 18-, 19-, 20-, and 21- inch diameters.
