The video is real, r-compounds dont make the same amount of tire noise you are used to.

Is this the teal/gray exige on white wheels? If so, not fake. Totally within reason.

Deep tread regular compounds chirp and squeal, r compounds kind of moan. I know thats a strange way of putting it, but thats what it sounds like to me. They dont make the same sounds at all, I have driven them both, and pushed both tires well beyond their limits
