Tires Continental or BFGoodrich
I’ve run Bfg on almost all of my vehicles. I’ve never had any issues with quality. Been that way for 29 plus, now.
I run BFG now but will switch to Yokohama next time just for variety and price. Have had no complaints with the KO2- I just want to try something different.
Bfg’s have been the best tires to me. They last for eternity, have always had enough grip for tearing up NW Washington trails that are wet and slick as shit, literally mostly roots, mud, and slick wet rocks. Never noticed poor on road performance, but you got guys expecting pirelli performance on their dodge 1500’s which is dumb. Only complaint i have is when i air down, they pop off the bead. One weird thing ive noticed, is theyll get to about 20% tread depth, and then stay there for the next 10 years. Its like thats as much as theyll ware.
I haven’t had any issues. And they’re the best looking AT imo. That’s part of the reason I got them.
I live in Bucharest, the amount of glass shards on the road is shattering. I switched from Conti SportContact (4 flats/week on average) to DTH, inflated to 5 bars, no flats yet in about half a year. I find them very comfy on both asphalt and forest roads.
Continental RaceKings of the Black Chili Protection recipe with a couple ounces of Stan’s sealant in each tire. I ride in goathead thorn country and 4 tires on 2 bikes are full of thorns. I never get flats.
They're on the more moderate side of AT but have been identical from a noise and fuel efficiency perspective to my previous road tire. BF Goodrich Trail-Terrain TA
out of the two you posted i like Contis , usually quiet well wearing affordable tires , i find the Michelin tires eventually get hard and noisy, will last forever but who cares if they drive you nuts every day , just my opinion.
Long-time fan of Conti 4000's. Discovered the Conti 5000's were too tight to fit my previous wheelset, Mavic Ksyrium Elite UST.
Currently, pairing Pirelli PZero Velo 4S tubeless with HED Belgium Plus wheels. The Conti 5000's do fit and run well with the HED wheels.
I got KO2s because everyone raved about the "triple peak" snow performance. Both sets of mine sucked ass in the snow.
