Owner reviews for tires

Winter tires did great for our first major snowfall. Bridgestone Blizzak WS90.

Best all-round trail / enduro tires imho: Maxxis Minion DHF (front) and Minion DHR II (rear). I run 2.5 and 2.4, respectively. Get the WT (wide trail) variant if your rim inner width is 20+mm. Dual compound good for durability. The DHF has great breaking and turning control and last me 100+ hrs. The rear is great for techie climbs.

Night and day with Michelin Snow X tires though. Now, I prefer it over our 4x4 truck for many snow situations (except in fresh snow fall cases where bumper clearance is an issue).

I've ran a lot of tire brands and always have the best performance from Maxxis.

Once I got some Maxxis suited to my riding style/terrain it felt like a whole new bike!

I like the Nokian WR G4 for my 16" wheels as it's a proper *all weather* and electric friendly (like most Nokians.) Not sure if they make them in a 205/45r17, but they are good for wet/cold/winter and just ok in the dry/warm.

I’ve got Dunlop Winter Sport 5 195/55 R16 87H and they’re great. Consumption, noise and grip all well balanced.

So for I like them more than the ko2s. They seem more quite over the ko2s. I think they are a thicker ply tire than the ko2s and can support more weight as well. I get about 20mpg hwy at 79mph.

I just paid 849 installed at Costco for the bfgoodrich advantage control the prices are crazy right now I don’t recall ever paying that much and that’s on sale I also have a Honda Accord

Vredestein Quatrac Pro will be my next set. I am so tired of buying Cont, Mich and other high mileage tires that don’t ware even and make noise before tread is gone, then I am stuck with a tire i over paid for and hate riding on. The tread lasts but they never seem to stay quiet.
