Vitour Galaxy R1 GT Tires

Actual user reviews are what you want:

I have these tires on the rear of my van, 255/60-15 which are V-rated. Mounted on a set of 15x8 Keystone Classics. Bought them directly from here:

Tires arrived in two days, i figured they would come from California but there are various regional tire distributor companies that handle the brand, mine came from Chattanooga, TN IIRC

Tires came wrapped with blue Vitour logo plastic wrap. Kinda cool and no blemishes or dirt on the tires. They were clean.

All the molded markings required by law present on sidewalls, clean molding lines, nice tread, very modern and the main reason I bought them was for the very subtle grooving on the edges (transition from tread to sidewall) All other tire brands with these sizes have way too blocky looking transitions, makes them look like a truck tire!

Balanced with minimal weight, they hold air, I run them at about 30-32 psi but they are no Mickey Thompson ET street drag radial, which I no longer waste on the street. (Put those on other rims for track use only)
I can light them up with my setup easily, like most pure street tires. They squeal pretty good though. Only drive in the dry and with normal civilized driving they are fine. No issues. As to road noise my setup is loud and I wouldn’t hear anything from the tires to begin with.

Only nitpicking issue I can see is how they do the white lettering. The height of the lettering as it rises from the sidewall is taller than other brands I’ve seen. And, with the set I received it looks like the lettering was sanded down to height, some irregularities in consistent height. Took some scrubbing to remove the blue coating from the white as well.

I run the black sidewalls out, painted the letters black so I don’t see white letter on the inside.

The tires are fine.
