Pros 

Developed & Tested at Nürburgring – Engineered through extensive track sessions on one of the world’s most demanding circuits. The CR-S has been fine-tuned to deliver peak performance in high-speed cornering, rapid elevation changes, and extreme braking zones.

Verified by Tire Rack & Grassroots Motorsports – Independently tested and reviewed by industry leaders, confirming its strong competitive performance against other top-tier 200TW tires. Real-world data shows its ability to maintain consistent lap times and provide predictable handling.

Medium-Soft UTQG 200 Compound – Specifically designed for Time Attack, HPDE, and extreme performance driving, offering an optimal balance between grip and longevity. Unlike softer compounds that wear rapidly, the CR-S retains its high grip levels over multiple sessions without excessive degradation.

Quick Heat-Up for Lapping Days – The advanced rubber compound allows for rapid warm-up, reaching peak operating temperature in just a few laps. This feature is especially useful for shorter sprint sessions, where drivers need immediate traction without excessive tire prep.

Road User Friendly – Unlike many aggressive track tires, the CR-S offers lower noise levels, making it a practical choice for street use while still delivering high track performance. The improved tread design also provides a smoother ride, reducing road harshness without sacrificing cornering stability.

Light Wet Condition Performance – While not designed for heavy rain, the CR-S provides reasonable grip in damp conditions, thanks to its asymmetric tread design and circumferential grooves that help evacuate water.

Wide Availability & Great Value in Canada – Available in various widths and large sizes, making it an excellent choice for super sports cars such as the Porsche GT3 RS, Chevrolet Corvette, and BMW M models. With strong distribution across Canada, it remains an affordable alternative to premium brands while delivering comparable performance.
