Tires Continental or Maxxis

I run Exo casing and have had zero flats or issues. Had over 60 rides on the last pair. Would recommend

I run exo casing on my dhrii & haven’t had any punctures

I’ve run EXO tyres for years without any problems.

Continental is frequently "second place" to Michelin in many categories (follow up on Tire Rack, and look their comparison guides), but they also cost like 80% of Michelin's price almost every time. They are never more expensive in the same category. Really good tires.

But its still a beefy maxxis tire. Im riding a dhr exo rear on my hardtail no insert and 18psi. Works great.

I run exo+ with no issues.

I run exo casing minions. No complaints.

Personally, I’d spend the extra money and get Continental tires because they make good shit. I run them on both cars, specifically the DWS06+. If it can handle my 500+ hp car, it can handle whatever you’re putting them on.

I am not a fan of ardents. They roll fast but have a habit of loosing grip when you least expect it and suck at regaining grip once they start to slide. I'm running Recons front and back and really like the set up. They roll pretty fast and are usually very predictable.

One of ours was constantly losing pressure, none of the other three ever needed more air, but the same one was constantly dipping under 30 - never went lower than 24 though.
