Tires MICHELIN or KENDA

I run Kendra honey badger 2.05” wide so my fully ridged xc carbon bike. They’re great all round tyres. Get a bit slippy on the sloppy!

I have good all seasons tyres ( Michelin CrossClimate 2), i have yet to notice any unexpected loss of traction.

Just had 4 Michelin defender2 tires installed. A little over $600 out the door. Free rotations and fixes. 80k warranty. Can’t go wrong.

I have CC2s on my Volvo XC90. So far I've put 45k miles and anticipate replacing them after another 10k or so. The thing I really like about Michelin tires is that they are so consistent right to the end.

I’ve never regretted buying Michelin tires. Can’t say this about Yokohamas. I can’t say what feels better about Michelin tires, they just driving feel better.

My wife had Costco install the CC2 on our ‘20, which is her daily driver. They’ve been excellent in the Minnesota winter and quiet over their first 7500 miles. I was concerned about the traction before we got them, but they are good in the snow and ice.

I currently have Michelin Primacy 4 tires under my Mini Cooper 116hp, and they're very nice, although not that brilliant in wet weather.

I recently got Michelin crossclimate 2’s and really like them. Smoother ride and handle snow well.

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.

My Scout came from the factory Kenda tires. I am wholly not impressed with them, after 9,000 km they are just starting to scrub in for turning grip. I am also under the understanding that these factory tires are only good for 10,000km, so I will be changing none the less.

The addition of any moisture to the rear wheel, including from dew or fog reduces grip friction into the realm of nonexistence making for a disconcerting riding experience.
