Designed for PB (Personal Best) hunters, weekend warriors and everyone in between, the VICTRA SPORT VR2 is our ultimate street and track tire. The new reinforced carbon black compound arrives at operating temperature quickly, delivering the same strong heat-cycle performance as the VR-1. A state-of-the-art aggressive pattern maximizes contact for full-throttle on-track performance, while retaining solid wet performance for those sudden downpours. Maxxis’ engineers created a brand-new casing design with ultra-high stiffness for near-telepathic responses to every input.

  • Next-generation racing compound with ultra-reinforced carbon black reaches operating temperature quickly and delivers a new level of dry traction along with excellent heat-cycle performance
  • Brand new casing design optimizes contact footprint and sharpens vehicle response for a more responsive driving experience
  • Aggressive new pattern design maximizes dry performance while retaining solid wet performance, delivering speed and control on the street and on the track
  • Due to the nature of the tread compound, special care is required when storing in near-freezing temperatures. Read more

Race Winning 200 TW Competition Tire

"Maxxis VR2 tires are the best choice in the 200 TW category for an all around track day and competition tire, providing great grip across a range of weather conditions, good heat tolerance and durability across multiple heat cycles. The VR2 helped me to take multiple sprint wins and podiums in the 2026 Gridlife Touring Cup racing a stock engine, stock ecu, stock transmission, stock ABS, stock brake caliper E36 M3, including setting a new GLTC RWD lap record (for a few laps) at Lime Rock Park. The tire provides great driver feedback and confidence, and works well in both double wishbone and strut style suspension systems. I highly recommend the VR2 for anyone looking for a sticky and durable track day or competition tire."

Track Day/Race Tire FIRE

"This tire keeps on giving! We use it on our race car for in Gridlife and its leaps and bounds ahead of the other brands we have used. On pure lap time we saved . 4s over our other tires! Its first heat cycle is SUPER fast for quaifying, and only falls off a couple tenths in later sessions, while others often delaminate or chunk with heat and abuse. Overall the tire lasts a long time, and we can do several weekends on the them without issue. I recommend trying low pressures, the tires still feel great due to the stiff sidewall that gives the steering feel a ton of confidence."

Proper 200TW Tire

"The 200TW tire category is a highly competitive category. Some tires are exceptionally grippy but with terrible longevity; others have exceptional wear qualities but lack any sort of peak grip. The VR2 has been an incredible tire that just keeps on delivering from new to the cord. Grip is consistently at the top of the 200TW category while delivering that level of grip throughout the life of the tire. The ability to handle heat and remain that consistent is what separates this tire from the rest. The VR2 also has exceptional performance both dry and wet while also delivering lower NVH and better comfort than other 200TW tires. Solid winner here."

— David (5/5)

Fast and Durable!

"This is a race / track ready 200tw that performs as well as it lasts. The tread design does not chunk, fall apart, and wear unevenly like most of its competitors. Grip comes on fast, great for maximizing pace in qualifying and time attack, also noticeably better traction on the street than other super 200tw tires."

— Eric M. (5/5)

I was impressed and very

"I was impressed and very satisfied with my first track day on these tires. They provided optimal grip within the first few corners and became stable after my first lap around the track. The tires maintained grip very well through out the entire session and left me very happy."

— Ivan C. (5/5)

Almost too good to be true

"This tire is the gift that keep on giving - excellent grip levels, excellent wear characteristics, excellent feel, and an excellent price. Seriously, look no further - this is the answer we’ve been looking for."

— Michael H. (5/5)

Best choice of tire in

"Best choice of tire in the 200tw category. Longevity is unbeatable compared to RE-71RS & A052 and the camber wear is relatively even across the board. The price is honestly amazing as well."

— Mark L. (5/5)

Speed & Longevity For The Right Price

"Easily the standout tire from the other non cheater 200TW tires. This compound handles enduros and hot lapping with ease. While not as fast as your cheater 200TW tires, it easily out performs your "Enduro" 200TW like ECF or RS4. Keep up the great work Maxxis team"

— Joe M. (5/5)

Sprint/HPDE/TimeAttack in one ?

"The VR2 strikes a good balance of performance and price, while somehow managing to deliver more on the performance side than I had initially anticipated. The first time out on these I hit a PB, the next 3 sessions the performance slightly (and I mean by like ~. 5s) but that pace stayed there for at least a 15 min session. Second day on them, somehow it had a faster pace than previously by a 1s then the next few laps and sessions after it stayed at around ~. 5s off that PB, 6-7 laps in. tires still look newish. I dunno how much life i will get out of these, but from the wear I'm thinking ill get 5 or 6 more days on them. Excellent Tire and for the price is now my benchmark track day tire."

— Stephen (5/5)

"This tire is one of the top 200 treadwear tires that I have used. Great balance of grip and lasts a good while! I would definitely buy these again."
