The Tempesta P1 P-01R is Vitour's Extreme Performance Summer tire designed for drivers looking for a tire with race-inspired technology and track-level performance in a street-capable tire. Engineered for the track to deliver precise handling, excellent grip, quick lap times, and the thrill of high-performance to drivers every time they hit the asphalt.
Note: Like all Extreme Performance Summer tires, Vitour's Tempesta P1 P-01R is not intended to be serviced, stored or driven in near-and-below-freezing temperatures, through snow or on ice.
The Tempesta P1 P-01R takes a racing-grade polymer compound and molds it into an asymmetric tread pattern designed to maximize grip on dry roads with confident, precise control. The optimized contour helps distribute pressure evenly during cornering, aided by the wide outer tread and broad shoulders. It also minimizes overheating in high-performance conditions, ensuring consistent grip and stability. The inboard of the tread contains closely spaced grooves and twin circumferential grooves for water displacement and resistance to hydroplaning.
The internal construction of the Tempesta P1 P-01R features two layers of polyester cord plies and reinforced sidewalls to improve steering feedback and responsiveness. A double-layer steel belt package provides a strong, lightweight foundation, and the 2-ply nylon reinforcement boosts high-speed performance and stability.
Note: The Tempesta P1+ P-01R is an expansion of the size lineup of the Tempesta P1 P-01R, and Vitour has stated that, apart from a small cosmetic difference in the horizontal shoulder features, the two tires are functionally identical. There is no sizing overlap, and both can be used in split fitment setups without issue.

...Perform well in wet conditions (I haven't hydroplaned since putting them on a year ago)...
These tires are a significant improvement over the stock tires. Pros: Perform well in wet conditions (I haven't hydroplaned since putting them on a year ago) Little road noise Did well in the snow (Slushy snow) Have done well on forestry roads, but I would hesitate going beyond that Improved traction and handling compared to stock
Cons: Reduced gas mileage (Initially, I saw a drop of 5mpg. After a year of use, I have a 2-3 mpg drop compared to stock) The tires need to be road force balanced regularly to maintain a smooth ride.

...I got to drive them through a lot of snow in the Northeast this winter. I found in Light snow and Ice not bad. They will get you up and through most of that with a little lateral slippage here and there...
30,000+ miles on them now, and about halfway through the tread. They are excellent in dry and wet conditions though I gave it a slightly lower score with Hydroplaning. In Dry or wet I never lose traction or grip. The tire is quiet and smooth. I got to drive them through a lot of snow in the Northeast this winter. I found in Light snow and Ice not bad. They will get you up and through most of that with a little lateral slippage here and there. Deep snow is a different story. Not nearly as good as the Falken Wilpeak AT Trail I had on my other Subaru (Outback). Those tires literally got me through 3 feet of snow in Vermont one day. The Conti is just ok in Deep Snow and is a HT tire not an AT tire so understandable. I think my preference is to have a jack of all trades tire so an AT or the newer All Weather tires may be more for me but I can't really complain about the Conti's overall performance. The Terrain Contact is totally a great Highway Tire comparable with the Michelin LTX MS etc.

...It's not hard off roading just trail riding but the tires have fantastic traction in mud or snow...
I have a few hunting and fishing spots I go to at least twice a month and the tires are flawless. It's not hard off roading just trail riding but the tires have fantastic traction in mud or snow. Very quiet on the highway so far, and feel solid on the roadway. Tire Rack was great to work with, the customer service helped me in my selection, they were right on the money. Great tire, Great service
