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.
An ultra-high-performance all-season tire, the iMove Gen 3 A/S from Ironman is designed for use on sport and performance-oriented coupes and sedans. Built with large shoulders that improve cornering and handling, the iMove Gen 3 A/S features an all-season rubber compound that allows for solid traction in dry, wet, and light winter weather conditions.
Kenda Nevegal and Kenda Kobra are the two tires I know of that are full all-terrain tires in the 24” wheelchair wheel size.
Some light tires like the Kenda Small Block 8. A small knobby tire that works great on the street.
Kenda K-RAD are super grippy!
Perfect all around tires for this kind of bike.
Ironman is a value line. They are not awful, also not outstanding. Wet traction and winter traction are not gonna be their strength.
Money forced my hand a couple summers back and I had to put new front tires on my Grand Marquis at the time. Had to go cheap and bought Ironman iMove all seasons. After a few months the only positives on the ledger were that a) they had tread and b) oddly, they balanced out unbelievably well. 80 MPH on the highway, smooth as glass. Ride and handling quality deteriorated quickly from new and they got loud in a hurry.
I had a set of kenda tires. They look aggressive but are the most slippery tire on the road. I wouldn't buy them again.
I just put one of those tires on the front of my K1600 & it doesn't like speeds over 70 mph. It handles good at low speeds & in the rain, but I don't like it at all on the highway. Feels like rain grooves on any surface.
