maxxis ardent in 26" are decent if you find it in 3C it's a nice tire for trail enduro.
I'm also currently running a MAXXIS Desert IT front tire on my KTM 1090 tubeless wheel without issue. Its a hard compound tire that is designed for the tough stuff, and I also recommend it.
The best blend of traction and longevity I've ridden so far is Maxxis Minions in the 60 compound. They held up to multiple days in Whistler Bike Park and were still in fine shape.
I just put on my 285 75 16 maxxis at811s a few days ago. Road noise is almost none, you would have to turn the speakers off and listen for it. Load rating E so stiffness is definitely a given. Braking is definitely harder because of the weight.
Gotta say, I've been a big fan of my maxxis tires. Super solid tire for a brand that isn't exactly a household name (I wouldn't call them offbrand, just not a big name).
So, over 500 miles on these tires. Dirt roads, a little bit of real off-road, freeway, grooved freeway, some rain (no snow). Here are my thoughts.
So far, because these are so light, I can discern virtually no difference in handling from the cheese-ball OEM tires. Mileage may have taken a slight dip based on the computer, probably due to the more aggressive tread pattern, but I'm still consistently getting over 20mpgs.
These things are really quiet. On grooved highways, really stable. Rain. It wasn't a toad-floater, but no hydroplaning, very stable and confidence inspiring. Braking, Excellent, better than the BFG/Wildpeaks, probably due to lower weight. Acceleration, Really really good. Again, because of the low weight, they come up to speed nicely. Dirt Roads. A really fun tire. Plenty of grip, easy to feel when they are starting to slide. And they slide very predictably. Real Off Road. Very compliant. Highway compliance. A very nice, comfortable tire. Cornering. The carcass is slightly stiffer than OEM, so they feel more planted in the twisty bits. Look. This is subjective, but I think these are the best looking tire's I've ever had.
It'll be fine. I have Rekon 2.4 WT on 28mm internal width rims and they feel great.
I just put minions DHR WT and DHF WT on my line elite 30s on my Slash and size wise they fit great and are awesome to ride.
Ardent rolls well but is lacking in traction. If you want to take corners fast, I would stay away from Ardent in the front - there is a dead zone between the middle and side knobs that will feel vague especially when cornering.
The Wanli S1088s I got were brand new when I got the Rims and tires from a buddy that sold his wrx, they're starting to have the notorious road noise, I'm guessing I'll need to replace them by next august so the noise doesn't drive me nuts.
