Tires Goodyear or Maxxis
Rekon Race is super fast if it has enough traction for you. If not, Rekon isn't a bad tire to try. Not as fast, but it won't give out when you push it too hard.
I thought the rekon race front and rear was amazing on hard pack rocky mountain dirt.
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
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
My local tire store didn’t have the Hankook in stock so I went went Goodyear Electric Drive and I like them quite a bit. There was a YouTube video about EV tires and the Electric Drive also got good ratings across many categories. So they were well balanced. The Hankook have quite a bit less grip than some other brands but that’s paid off in less rolling resistance and better range.
I had Maxlife on my 1.5T and was satisfied
Goodyear band Efficient Grip Performance 2 are the tires installed.
Almost 20000 a year in all weather conditions, very good mileage and no tire noise.
I think the tires are named as a summer tire but they have excellent grip!
Especially in the rain soooo a perfect tire for driving in Belgium.
DHRs are grippy as hell but are not fast rolling. I swapped out for DHF and DHR to see about getting some extra grip and it was an absolute disaster when it came time to pedal. Ended up leaving the DHF on but putting the DHR back on the rear. I feel like it was a good compromise.
Not good quality. My jeep had them and a 2x3 inch rock punctured straight through the middle of a tire.
Expect to go slower. DH is for downhill. My bike came with those and my God it was a slog on flat, rolling and uphill. And forget about accelerating out of turns.
