Rating 4.0

I will add that I saw that Consumer Reports gave a surprisingly good review of the Kenda Vezda Touring 4S.

Dry braking: 4/5

Wet braking: 3/5

Handling: 3/5

Hydroplaning: 3/5

Snow traction: 4/5

Ice braking: 4/5

Ride comfort: 3/5

Noise: 4/5

Rolling resistance: 3/5

Tested tread life (Miles): 50000

Verdict: "Pros: Impressive snow and ice grip as well as dry braking performance. Cons: 50,000 mile projected tread life based on CR's test is so-so. CR's Take: A great choice if winter traction is a priority."

Pros: Impressive snow, ice grip
Cons: so-so tread life
Mileage: 50000 km

I have the AT’s on my cannon and they’ve gotten me places a cannon shouldn’t be going. Worn reasonably. Not sure how RTs go but I recommend Kenda.

Pros: worn reasonably, recommend Kenda

Not on your list but I have a set of Kenda Klever at2's on both my daily 1st gen taco and my 94 t4r trail rig. I have no complaints about either. Good on road manners and not too loud. Been good in snow and offroad as well.

Pros: good on road manners
Cons: none
Vehicle: Toyota

Maybe I am missing something. The Kenda tire sidewall says 30 - 50 PSI. Normally I would inflate to 45 PSI or so for road use. When I put an inflator on the tires they become quite firm at 15 - 17 PSI and ride well without excessive drag. It also feels right from the thumb on the tread test.

Pros: ride well, without drag
Cons: firm at low PSI

I cant speak for the K657 specifically, but I ran a Kenda K761 rear on my CM400. I found that the Kenda tire chipped and fragmented really easily but otherwise was just an OK tire.

Pros: OK tire
Cons: chipped and fragmented easily
Vehicle: Honda

Kendas are drift or low budget track tires. They’ll work but might be loud when driving

Pros: good for drift/track
Cons: might be loud

OEM Porsche Tires

Lol as someone who comes from a Porsche owning family, the 265 tires up front and 295 in the back will automatically bankrupt you. Nothing like looking for a winter set of tires and wheels knowing you have to get Audi spec 5x112 wheels with tires wider than dump trucks that are triple the cost of 17 inch 225 tires with half the life.

Cons: expensive tire replacement
Vehicle: Porsche

Almost did the same thing with my 992.2 GTS with the same tires. I was doing 10kph UNDER the speed limit since I was all over the fucking place. Horrible tire for the rain.

Cons: horrible for rain
Vehicle: Porsche
