Tires DUNLOP or Nokia
I now run the Dunlop D604, and it’s perfect for me. I run gravel roads and farm trails that are mostly dirt and mud. Granted- they are an all-terrain tire, and will not do as well as the knobbies in deep mud, but they are more than efficient for gravel and hard pack/well traveled dirt roads, even if they’re wet and slick.
The Dunlop's that come with the bike were pretty good but the Pilot Road 6 I've got on them right now are just marvellous on grip and wear. I don't think I'll pick a different tyre from now on.
Nokian tires are great.
Have a look at [nokians outpost apt](https://simpletire.com/brands/nokian-tires/outpost-apt), should be cheaper than all 3 of your options and it’s also higher temperature and tread wear rated at 700AA vs 620AB, 600AB and 600AB, (tread wear #, traction grade, temperature grade). It also has nokian’s aramid Fiber reinforcement
I was in the exact same boat...I would have preferred the CrossClimates but went with the WRG5 based on the Nokian pedigree and other recommendations for my '18 Accord Hybrid. Yesterday, I drove through some pretty snowy and icy weather in New Brunswick and Quebec. Tires handled like a champ!
something like the Continental DWS 06+ from April until November and a dedicated studded Winter tire like the Nokian Hakkapellitta 10 for Winter is a really great choice.
They’re pretty good. Not the best but they perform awesome. They’re overpriced but they come with the car so whatever. Anyone that says they suck are full of themselves and probably can’t drive the car to its full extent anyway. I track my cars and have used many a set of tire, these have awesome traction, good in rain and look good.
I ran these tires once to save money. You can get a knee down but noticably less traction than something like an s22. Afterwords I switched to michelin power 5's, loved them.
Almost slid into a car last year on the oem dunlops, can confirm they are dog shit wrapped in cat shit
I was able to break loose/slide the stock tires during my test drive in January.
