Tires NANKANG or KENDA

I decided to give the Kenda K270s a shot and first impression was that they're not great on street, braking is much worse compared to the shinkos and I got a bit of wobble/instability over 65mph. Finally got to try them on dirt and WOW. They are incredible on the trail. Very confidence inspiring compared to the shinkos.

I'm running Girordisc in the front with IS3500 and in the rear stock rotors with IS3000 and they are holding up so far at Mosport with Nankang CRS V2 tires.

Kenda Vezda lasts way, wayyyyyy longer, like longer than RS4's longer

I am using the Kenda Wintergen 2 on a Mazda CX3 and it's good. Way more silent than the original Toyo R52 summer tires. And it's okay in the wet too. I'm driving it the 4th year now and they are definitely not worse than the Toyos in the wet.

I have these on my 01 GMC Yukon that I use for hunting/camping ( budget build). They've exceeded expectations in mud/rain/snow.

I bought Kenda vezda’s becuase they were the cheapest 200 tread wear tire out there. They have been awesome, especially for the money.

My Klevers last about 20k and get noisy long before that. For me, traction is fine and hasn't been an issue in the rain or mild snow.

I will say the nankangs also suffer more in the rain (could be temp related too, but feels like they don’t evacuate water as well)

Nankang CRS definitely is not top tier on Lincoln concrete. I'd honestly throw it below the RT660 on pace. Decent on asphalt and hot weather.

tread ware has been very good it took my mechanic an entire box of weights to balance them and they still shake ride quality on the highway is terrible wont buy again
