Tires DUNLOP or KENDA
My 2016 came with Dunlop Sport Maxx RT summer tires, I knew from 8 years with my 2002 WRX that I was immediately going to have to pickup a second set.
Then I got Dunlop summer tires and they are fantastic in the summer.
The best tire I have found for this setup is the Kenda K161 Knobby Cross 27x1-3/8 Gum Wall Tire. I have a set on a city bike of similar vintage and geometry and they're really quite good.
I would recommend swapping the tires out and setting it up tubeless when you get around to it. It came with Torreno dry 38s and I put on Kenda Crusher 45/40s and it is much faster and capable on dirt and road.
Kenda Nevegal and Kenda Kobra are the two tires I know of that are full all-terrain tires in the 24” wheelchair wheel size.
my cheapo Kenda Klever ATs have been great in the snow, okay in bad mud, and great on loose dirt. Killer is they’re loud as hell, but shit they were only $140/tire. Been running them for 30k+ miles without issue
For a summer tire for a road car I think the Dunlop ZIII are a good choice. Long in the tooth and not competitive as a track tire anymore but great in the rain and great on the road.
I personally experienced a blow out from Dunlop tires in the 90’s. Although they have improved since then i still wouldnt risk it.
Absolutely not. Radster trail. Can't get replacement tires anywhere. Particularly the original Kenda Havok Tires that came with it.
We all know they are lackluster tires.
