Tires YOKOHAMA or Maxxis

Just my opinion. I run Yokohama tires on my pickup. 2nd set. Awesome! I pull 18wheeelers out of mud, drive on terrible lease roads and they holdup great.

I’m 84 kg, use Maxxis tires with an 2.5 Assegai EXO+ tire up front and a 2.4 DHR II DoubleDown casing in the rear. I ride and race reasonably hard/fast. I’m using 22/23, but when I have an EXO+ casing out back I have to up that a couple psi to keep from denting my rim.

Currently got Yokohama Geolandar GO15, its a solid A/T tire, pero not too aggressive yung looks nya. Comfort is top notch, parang d ako nagpalit ng wheels from the stock.

The maxxis dth in the 2.3 has been my absolute favorite commuter tire for a long time. I still can't believe how light they are compared to other tires of this size. Tire tread is great for pavement and hard pack. Even had them out for some serious loaded touring and praised them.

I have Yokohama geolanders with the semi-aggressive tread. Set at 36 psi, and I get about 20 mpg backroads and highway. Lower the psi and hit the trails if I need. Plus I like the white lettering....

Yokohama Geolanders have always been my go-to. From a 92 Chevy to an 01 Ford, when I need to replace my stock tires, that's what I plan. Great long life, an amazing grip, and can handle some dirt and light mud.

Ad09 is a fantastic tire for your use case, I used to run nankang ar1, now I run ado9 and it's a great tire.

For straight time-attack speed it's either the Yokohama A052 (for 1 lap) or the new RE71RS (for several laps).

I don’t have enough experience on Spesh tires other than the Sworks Fasttrack/Renegade I bought last year on a similar sale. They weigh in at around 620g each in the 2.35 size, which is much lighter than my Rekon Race 2.4WT at 780g. Feels nice to lose that much rotational weight and the grip I found to be similar. Also similar efficiency. What I didn’t like was the flimsy sidewall. There’s a reason they are so light. Lots of tire squirm and feeling of folding over in turns unless I ran high PSI (+5PSI compared to the Rekon Race). This is on a 30mm IW rim. Also, I had to use my tire plug for the first time on the front tire (Fasttrack). I’ve gone back to a slow XC setup of Rekon/Rekon Race this year but with a race or two coming up I’m debating what to do. I’m intrigued by the Aspen/Rekon Race combo but Aspen’s weigh about the same as my Rekon Race.

My maxxis tires usually last max 350miles in rear. My last dissector neede to be ditched after ~150-200 miles since knobs ripped apart.
