I have used the Rekon/Rekon Race combo and it is good for xc. I’m currently on Vittoria Barzo/Mezcal and I like them a little bit more than the Maxxis combo
Owner reviews for tires
Hankook a trusted quality brand as well
nexen if u like that cc2 pattern. cheaper too. wrg5 if u deal with potholes.
Nexen. They don’t do much marketing, but they make good tires and have one of the best included warranties.
I work at Goodyear and they look like normal new snows to me, the softer rubber can pick dirt and other shit up faster than other tire models if not driven in winter conditions if you’re referring to the faded coloration
Those Nexen N5000+ are great but older models (been on the market for 10 or so years), they started phasing them out several years ago with only a few sizes remaining, and were largely replaced by the N5000 Platinum
Vouch for Nexen, using their summer performance tires and got a tire blew recently due to a pothole on highway , they approved my road hazard claim quick and sending me reimbursement for my tire. Satisfied and getting another for sure
I love them. They have excellent grip. I didn't notice a difference when I drove in the rain. Definitely would purchase again. Great tires for the price, amazing if they're on sale. Ultimately I am very happy with them and would recommend.
It's an ok tire... Better than Chinesium brands but barely keeps up with other bargain brands like Cooper, Nexen, Kuhmo, Falken, etc... "Good for a year" is an old joke about these tires and unfortunately, although not really accurate, their longevity seems a lot lower than older Goodyear tires.
I am NOT impressed by either set of Pirelli tires I have owned. Compared to those the Pirelli have much less grip and if the road is even slightly damp they slide all over these things are supposed to be "ultra high performance" won't ever get these again. Dry grip is ok. But I find they squeal and let go at a much lower speed than the previous khumo set.
