Tires Firestone or KENDA
I bought Kenda vezda’s becuase they were the cheapest 200 tread wear tire out there. They have been awesome, especially for the money.
I'm rocking them on my R33 GT-R and I am stoked at how hard they grip the road with the price.
I went to the Kenda sport nevegal 29 and I won't be going to any other than that..
I use Firestone Firehawk Indy 500’s
Great tyre, a little less money than the Michelin or Bridgestone.
I’m running Kenda K413 tires front and back but I got 110 width. I love the tires and the ride feels great.
Yeah, I have 20k with these on my Mazda6 and I wouldn't say they're unresponsive. In fact I would say they're quite responsive in that they like to track in the direction you're turning, so the car gets encouraged to dive into turns. One thing I have noticed is that they feel much more dead if you let them get low. Keep them at 36psi.
I’m glad the series asked Firestone for a bigger differential in pace between the reds and blacks. A lot of the time last year it seemed largely negligible.
The tires I currently have are Firestone Firehawk Indy 500s, which were on the car when I bought it. For my use case I generally like them, with one exception: wet weather performance. Even though moderate NorCal doesn't see too many rainy days, I've felt myself losing traction/hydroplaning on quite a few occasions. If it weren't for this issue, I could easily see myself just replacing them with another set of Firehawks and calling it a day
I wanted to love Kendas new line of stuff they dropped a while back. I threw a couple Regoliths on my mtb and destroyed the rear on the first ride. I never have tire issues.
Yes, Kenda tires are low quality. I bought a set with “flat protection” for my commuter several years ago. After less than a week, a 1/2” piece of glass created a gash in the front tread and casing and ruining the tire.
