Tires DUNLOP or Maxxis

The maxxis dth in the 2.3 has been my absolute favorite commuter tire for a long time. I still can't believe how light they are compared to other tires of this size. Tire tread is great for pavement and hard pack. Even had them out for some serious loaded touring and praised them.

in the end I ended up installing the stock tires Dunlop AT22 which are the best

I'm planning to try the Dunlop Ensave in 195/65R15 because its the only eco focused tire in that size I can find that weighs under 17lbs.

The stock dunlops are actually a pretty good summer tire, they just wear fast, but their grip in the dry once they warm up is pretty good.

Went from dhf/dhr II combo to kryptotal enduro soft fr/re and never coming back to maxxis

Dunlop Q5‘s love my last one, Never had a problem with it,

Not my favorite tire but rubber and casing make a bigger difference than tread patterns. Especially in the roots and rocks. I'd take a 3c Maxxis anything over a Kenda every time.

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.

They ride like shit on the road, I’m sorry.

They blow. Not great in rain either.
