About This Tire

The Riken Raptor VR 195/55R15 is a V-speed rated all-season tire, designed for sedan, coupe, minivan and crossover drivers who prioritize balanced handling performance and year-round versatility in everyday driving. Its tread design and compound focus on maintaining consistent road contact through all seasons while providing reliable traction in dry, wet and light snow conditions.

The Raptor VR features a symmetric tread design with a continuous center rib for solid on-center feel and steering response, complemented by four wide circumferential grooves and multiple lateral notches that work together to evacuate water and resist hydroplaning. In-block sipes provide additional biting edges for enhanced all-season traction, while the sport-touring construction balances performance with comfort. Driver feedback points to strong dry performance and good wet handling, with comfort levels and treadwear that support reliable daily use.

Compared to performance-oriented tires, it emphasizes comfort, stability, and long-term usability. Overall, it's a solid choice for passenger vehicles used primarily for daily driving and commuting in varied weather conditions.
