i have 20 x 1.75 kenda commuter tires. i usually fill them to about 40-45psi, i think the side wall says 40-60 psi?
I had 35" Kenda MTs on my JK. I got 80,000 miles out of them . The only reason I didn't replace them with Kenda was because there were none available at the time I needed new tires. I never had issues balancing them and I prefer how they performed off road over my current tires. The Kenda's cleaned out better.
After searching online, I found a brand called Kenda Klever. After installing them, I did a review video on the tires and what I thought about them. Overall, they have been a good tire. Alot of comments I have read say they are hard to balance. I have not had any issues with them so far. I plan on doing another 4-6 month update video review on them to see how they are wearing.
Honestly these are a pretty decent tire in snow and ice having driven the RAV in the snow storm we just got in Mass.
we've been using Dunlop for our vios.
Dude the stock dunlop's can't even handle muddy roads. I live down a really long one and turning out of my driveway onto the road always made the front tires spin and the diff lock up weird.
Changed over to as3+'s and it's never been better.
Stock dunlops...terrible in snow.
Winter tires...beast mode!
It's a night and day difference.
Have Dunlop Sig HP 235/45r17 on my Volt. Not a bad tire. Grip is much higher than the stockers of course. Weird thing though, around 2 different off ramps at a similar speed to the stock tires, the ESP light comes on. I know it is getting light on the back inside tire, but I am coasting, not braking. Though, not sure how the regen works with the rear tires. So maybe the car is braking the back tires at the same amount as the regen is braking the front axle? Either way, never got an ESP light on any cornering with stock tires, and get it occasionally with the new ones. Slight slight bit of howl, but coming from the crap hypermile OE tires, everything is going to be louder. For the price I paid, I will not complain a bit.
I'm on ZII's on my "street wheels" and while they're fine for around town, I've never liked them from a performance perspective. Compared to the purpose built 200TW cheater tires (e.g. RE71R, RT660, RS4) the ZII's give up a LOT of grip and probably seconds per lap at a racetrack.
They did ok on the track for a summer tire (240tw) but I think next season I'm going with something else. For the life of me I could not corner in these
