The Raptor VR is RIKEN's V-speed rated Grand Touring All-Season tire developed for the drivers of sedans, coupes, minivans and crossover vehicles. Designed as a sport-touring tire, the Raptor VR combines good handling performance with year-round traction in dry, wet and wintry conditions, including light snow.

Featuring an all-season tread compound molded into a symmetric design, the Raptor VR utilizes a continuous center rib for constant rubber-to-road contact that delivers solid on-center feel and steering response. Multiple lateral notches work in conjunction with the four wide, circumferential grooves to move water away from the contact patch and resist hydroplaning, while in-block sipes provide the biting edges needed to generate all-season traction.
