About This Tire

The Riken Raptor VR 205/60R16 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 varied weather conditions while delivering responsive steering feel. The Raptor VR features a symmetric tread pattern with a continuous center rib that provides constant rubber-to-road contact for solid on-center feel.

Four wide circumferential grooves work alongside multiple lateral notches to channel water away from the contact patch and resist hydroplaning, while in-block sipes create the biting edges needed for traction in light snow and wet conditions. Driver feedback points to excellent dry handling capabilities and good performance across wet conditions, comfort, and treadwear, with over 300 evaluations supporting its reliable everyday performance. 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 commuting and family transportation in mixed weather conditions.
