Tires FEDERAL or KENDA

Federal command 2.4s have been my favorite so far. Smooth center tread for good rolling and speed retention, but still have some tread on the side for banking and grind protection. Rubber compound they use is also getting softer with time/riding so they feel better the more worn in they get.

I've been running the Kenda Kruz on my Wide Glide for a few years now, I'm very happy with them! Great rain tire and I get more miles out of them then Dunlop tires.

Kenda Bearclaw HTRs are some of the longest lasting tires out there.

I’m running the AT2s on my rig in 265/75-16. Really solid tires for the money. So far I’ve got about 5-7k on them. Drove cross country and they did pretty good on the highway loaded down with gear, and not too noisy either. Decent off-road as well.

They have great traction in the dirt and never de-bead

Just picked up some dirt cheap 26" tendrils to replace the nobbys on my stumpjumper commuter. Hope they do well with glass riddled roads, but honestly at $10 a pop it's not a big deal if they don't.

YEARS ago, had to be over 12 yrs, Kenda was selling FLAME tires for $5 each. I bought 30. I still have a few. They weigh a friggin ton, at least 2x more than a normal tire but they're pretty bulletproof and look cool.

Kenda is one of the better China made tires, but given the choice, I’d take the Goodyear’s and continue using my old wheels. It’s actually the choice I recently made.

595s are super squishy. I'd say, out of all performance tires, they have the least stiff sidewall. It's definitely you reducing how much sidewall you have by going up to bigger wheels.

My Scout came from the factory Kenda tires. I am wholly not impressed with them, after 9,000 km they are just starting to scrub in for turning grip. I am also under the understanding that these factory tires are only good for 10,000km, so I will be changing none the less.

The addition of any moisture to the rear wheel, including from dew or fog reduces grip friction into the realm of nonexistence making for a disconcerting riding experience.
