A Maxxis Shorty in DD casing and Max-Grip compound is about as slow a tyre as you can get - a Maxxis Rekon Race in Exo casing and Max-Speed compound is about the fastest thing you can put on your rims.
I got a great deal on Bridgestone Weatherpeak at Costco. I felt very confident driving them in torrential rains last week.
Bought these tires for my Mazda 3 after one of my OEM Bridgestone EL440’s got pregnant(sidewall bulge), and I plugged a puncture in the other one. Decided to just replace the tires completely.
So far I’m happy with them.
Pros:
- Severe snow rating so they are legally snow tires in my state(for mountain passes and stuff), and I’m guessing the snow traction is way better. They are still all season tires though.
- Seems to be a softer ride overall even on the stock 18” side.
- XL sidewall strength, vs the stock tires being standard. Should help with those sidewall issues.
- They seem fairly quiet as far as noise.
- $150 rebate in addition to being fairly cheap
Cons:
- These are definitely not for those people who want sporty handling, they don’t really feel like a sport tire, and are more of a touring road tire.
- I’ve heard the treadwear isn’t the best(makes sense with the snow rating)
I had the Bridgestone Revo 3 in my last truck and they did great. And they have a 60k mileage warranty. I got 70k out of them. Before my truck was totaled. Probably had another 15k on them.
I'm currently running Maxxis Razr AT811 tyres. They are pretty quiet and handle great on road, and are definitely capable offroad too.
I’ve run Blizzaks in Colorado the past two winters. They’re pretty good but I’m digging the Michelins more and more and will probably replace them next winter
With any car including the Kia Niro EV. It's always the best bet to go with Michelin X-Ice and Bridgestone Blizzack. They're the highest rated and I have driven them on snowy, hilly roads and they seem to have the best grip.
I have an ADV Rear tire on my Fat Boy, and a Cruiser tire on the back.
Both Bridgestone.
They've been great tires.
I got 4 weatherpeak tires brand new in august of this year. I have driven 15,000+ miles with them already and I love them. But my tires are at a 5/32nds all the way around , even with rotating every 5,000 miles. What is causing them to wear so quickly?
Pretty sure I had Ecopias on my new 18 Sportwagen. I think I got rid of them at 40k due to noise and cupping on the rears. I rotated them every 5k as well. Not impressed.
