Viking tyre is to replace Sime tyre, which gona phase out.
In a way, Viking own by Conti and since they bought over Sime, now fully Conti already....

I see. I know there is one more called A drive R1 too. How does that fare if lets say compare with C drive 2?
A-Drive R1 is entry level sports pattern tyre. In Yokohama Australia website they are called Affordable Handling upgrade, something like BS MY-01 being called a Sports Touring tyre.
Not to say whether good or bad, but just like entry level in Sports category. What I know they are made for economy so it is cheaper and durable, not so much into top notch performance. For that they have the S-Drive....:driver:
Oh! R1 I think comes in larger sizes too...

I will say C-drive 2 is in between A-Drive R1 and S-Drive, but then again what priorities? If for cornering I will say R1 better, comfort and grip C-Drive 2....
