Tires KENDA or Shinko

When I bought my Jeep it came with 37’s on it and I didn’t want to downsize so I ended up with Kenda klever RT for 1300 for all 4 which is cheaper then the Mickey Thompson a I run now ???? but they performed pretty damn well through the winter very predictable tire when breaking free. Ran them for close to 50,000 miles

Kenda Klever. I have personally used the AT2s and RTs and they are both great

I have Kenda Kevlar on mine. They are great both on and off road.

Used Kenda KM-1 tires. 100% highway/street commuting miles. I got 25,000 miles usage on the rear tire! I highly recommend this tire.

If you go with the cheaper of the two options, get the Kenda Kozmik's. They're similar to the Michelin City Grips and have the same dual compound tread. I've never had any problems with them and they've lasted well over 6000 miles, they hold the road in wet weather and do okay in light snow.

Kenda tyres also in Australia and these aren’t a cheap crappy brand. The R/T & M/T have a very durable casing and are good value for money

Cheap Kenda tires will be heavy and not made terribly well. Not to the point of being unsafe, but there is a noticeable difference in performance between a cheap Kenda tire and something like a Continental race king or Vittoria mezcal.

So here is an update on the Kenda klever RT. Smooth rolling down highway speeds. Compared to MT’s they are pretty quiet wind noise drowns out the sound for the most part. Rainy weather they handle pretty good. Didn’t effect gas mileage none dash still says 19-20mpg. Snow handling……….it’s a 50/50 on that. I feel as if they are a bit looser then others I’ve ran but hold their own.

I had some Kendas on a K75 a decade or so ago and they were garbage.

On my '16 RT, the dealer installed a new set of Kenda KM1 sport touring tires when they prepped it to sell. I've put a couple hundred miles on the tires now, and I'm not crazy about them. Above 55mph, the entire bike feels like it's "squirming" slightly. You can feel a little instability in your hands, almost like you're riding on a highway with rain grooves.
