Tires Maxxis or VITOUR

Maxxis Tires

Rekon Race is super fast if it has enough traction for you. If not, Rekon isn't a bad tire to try. Not as fast, but it won't give out when you push it too hard.

Pros: not bad tire
Cons: not as fast

I have used the Rekon/Rekon Race combo and it is good for xc. I’m currently on Vittoria Barzo/Mezcal and I like them a little bit more than the Maxxis combo

Pros: good for xc

Rekon for the rear - Forecaster for the front. Super light - super fast - and good for all scenarios other than wet mud.

Pros: super light, super fast
Cons: other than wet mud

My favorite trail bike combo right now is a DHR2 front and dissector rear but I’m considering switching to rekon rear.

Pros: great speed

Rating 4.0

Sunday I'm doing my first event on the Vitour P1, moving from the Rival S 1.5. I'll report back.

Biggest thing on them is the sizes. They make weird sizes that can net you an advantage, especially on specific cars.

I've done about 1200 Street miles and it's a clearly faster tire. Hard as hell when cold. Like, the first mile or two is pretty bouncy. But settles in quickly just on street driving. I imagine the first lap will get enough heat in.

While I'd love to do an apples to apples size wise, the very availability of a 305 in a 15" tire at 200tw is a huge consideration. Like for like they could be slower, but the next widest 15" option is a 245" by the competitors' 200tw offerings. So, I'll post my results after Sunday's event.

The shorter overall OD can also help (or hurt) depending on gearing.

Pros: clearly faster tire
Cons: hard as hell when cold
Mileage: 1200 km

VITOUR Tires

I just out a set on my daily and so far I really like them. I came from BFG Rivals. The P1 definitely grips harder.

They're very new so not a ton of data on them, but they seem to be running with the fastest tires, and supposedly are lasting longer while being cheaper to buy.

I've put about 1500 miles on mine so far and am impressed with the wear.

Pros: grips harder, lasting longer
Cons: very new, little data
Mileage: 2414 km

I had 2.6 on mine and hated them. Too draggy heavy and slow. Switched to 2.4 all round and it's much more responsive in corners. I'm running Maxxis Ardent exo. No good for wet sloppy stuff,but great for dry or gritty trails.

Pros: more responsive in corners
Cons: no good for wet

Cons: knobs ripped apart
Mileage: 350 km
