Tires NITTO or KENDA

Would definitely recommend either of these to anyone. Dual sport is the way to go and these 2 give a more offroad vs more on road choice.

I wrecked hard on gravel with stock tires, went with Kenda big blocks and got all my confidence back. Little different on the road, would only recommend if you do more off road riding.

I can recommend Kenda Big Blocks, they’ve been great on every surface I’ve been on. I’ve done 4800km trip over two weeks and they held up ok. They lasted about 9000km in total.

For ATs I’ve been using Nitto Terra Grappler G2s, they’re quiet and good in rain/snow.

I like the kenda kasier KR20A , they are sporty and have great performance, plus they are relatively cheap

Nitto's on. I love these tires

I’ve had very good luck with copper and nitto. Top notch products

Cheap Kenda tires will be heavy and not made terribly well. Not to the point of being unsafe, but there is a noticeable difference in performance between a cheap Kenda tire and something like a Continental race king or Vittoria mezcal.

They’re trash tires. My Nittos hit 20k and lost enough traction on wet that I lost confidence in them. When a nail went thru the sidewall 4k miles later it gave me an excuse to upgrade to wildpeaks. The difference was huge.

Experiencing the same issue with my Terra Grappler G2. I wasn’t sure if it was just mine since we live in Florida. However, it doesn’t look like it’s an isolated issue that only applies to southern regions. Mine are only 2.5 years old with around 18K miles on them.
