Tires Falken or Maxxis

Might I suggest the Falken Aklimates, they are a great all weather tire at an amazing price point. I work at a tire warehouse and I got a tester set and don’t have any issues with the tires themselves.

I really like the DHR as a front tire. I run it F/R sometimes. It has a slightly faster feel, good braking traction, enough bite to lay it over hard.

Excellent tire tread. But I recommend DD or DH casing instead of exo +, depending on the skill of trails you are planning to ride and how hard/advanced rider you are.

Exo is too light of a sidewall. On the front go minimum with the new exo+. Grip wise the Assegai or dhf front or good bit Assegai rear is draggy and makes a difference on the high speed jump lines. I’d go dhr2 rear in the dd casing with a liner.

I’ve been using RT660’s for the past 3 years and they’re fantastic. Though they’re the only summer tires I’ve bought so I don’t have much reference. But they handle great, especially after getting heat into it, and of course it depends on the car but it made a night and day difference in terms of confidence with my car.

I have only had Falken Azeni 660rts, but they've been great. I did a full season of codriving on my 205/50r15s last year and they still have a lot of life in them.

I ran Exo for a year and ride on trails littered with basalt which is known to have very sharp edges, never had an issue with sidewall slicing.

EXO is plenty for XC and most trail riding IMO.

I miss the perellis - sound deadening foam in them! Flake s are noisy!

For the love of God never buy the Falken Wildpeak at3w all terrain truck tires. They are the absolute worst tire I've ever had on a vehicle.
