Tires Hankook or Maxxis
Hankook a trusted quality brand as well
Rekon for the rear - Forecaster for the front. Super light - super fast - and good for all scenarios other than wet mud.
My favorite trail bike combo right now is a DHR2 front and dissector rear but I’m considering switching to rekon rear.
Just got my hands on the Hankook ventus prime 4 quiet, soft, calm, sticks to the ground and doesnt suffer on cornering or handling no understeering or whats so ever. Highly recommend either the bridgestone or the hankooks especially for long drives.
Maxxis Razr ATs. They handle great and served me well in winter driving.
Here’s an update on the Hankook tires. They are notably more efficient than the Pirellis. My daily commute was showing an average energy use of 285 Whr/mile pretty consistently. For the past month, it is now at 235 Whr/mile. This is in addition to being notably quieter over most road surfaces.
Slower but vastly more durable tire > outright pace for an 8 hour enduro. And the answer to that is, as always, Hankook RS4.
They were fine for highway. I got a flat in 1 and decided it was time for an upgrade at 22,500. They had plenty of tread left. They just didn't feel like a truck tire to me.
These tires are not great. My GTI I bought had them on and I’m just riding them out. This will be their last season. They’ve been loud the entire time I’ve had them and aren’t great on any road condition.
I've tried the Ardent in a 2.3 width as a rear tire, and wasn't a fan. It was prone to breaking loose easily in corners with little warning.
