Test 4B of the 2025 Tire Rack Testing Program is a first of its kind. We took a top-performing DOT Radial (commonly called R-Comp), the Hoosier R7, and compared it to a Circuit Race tire, a true “slick”, the Pilot Sport GT M. This particular GT M was outfitted in the S8 compound, as it comes in 3 different options. How much faster is a true racing slick? Watch to find out!
