Tires Maxxis or OEM Subaru

OEM Subaru Tires

Over the last 2200 miles (3540km) since I put my snows on, I've averaged 26.4mpg, or 8.9l/100km. At least half of those miles are in decent storms. I don't know how people get such horrible mileage in these cars- mine gets better than any previous Subaru I've owned, while going a hell of a lot faster.

Pros: better than previous Subaru
Cons: horrible mileage for others
Vehicle: Subaru
Mileage: 3540 km

Maxxis Tires

If you want something that’ll stretch closer to 15 to 20k km, the Maxxis Bighorn 2.0 has held up way better for me as my last set went just under 17k km before chunking.

Pros: held up way better
Cons: before chunking
Mileage: 17000 km

If you want as much choice of casing and compound as possible go Maxxis - DHRII or Dissector. Dissector is faster rolling and perfect for dry loose rocky.

Pros: faster rolling, perfect
Cons: hard to get

For proper DH right now the most loved combo is Maxxis Assegai front / Minion DHR II rear, both in DH casing + MaxxGrip.

Pros: most loved combo

Rating 3.0

Gravel tires don\u2019t have great puncture resistance generally, short of something like a 40mm Maxxis refuse. You really want to set these up tubeless. I would constantly get slow flats from flint or road debris when I ran WTBs with tubes.

Cons: slow flats from debris

The fucking console rattles like a mother fucker. The stock tires are pieces of shit. The clutch pedal will make noise when it is cold because they used shitty spot welds on the pedal assembly. The ac compressor will probably fail within 50k miles.

Cons: console rattles, stock tires shit

I had these exact tires on an Acura TL. I wouldn't recommend them, they were not great in the winter. They were also really loud on the highway and they wore really quick.

Cons: loud, wore quick
Vehicle: Acura TL
