Tires KENDA or GENERAL TIRE
General Grabber ATXs are awesome. I’ve had them in 37x12.5 for 40k miles on my gladiator and they are still going strong, and I’ve wheeled on dry rocks in Moab, snowy rocks in Moab, wet rocks and mud in Arkansas, and dusty rocky central TX.
Been riding the Kenda Small Block 8 without any problems lately, though I don't live in the "glassy" part of Berlin.
I doubt anyone will thumbs up this since they’re cheap tires, but the Kenda Kwik Tendrils I have (26x1.75) I really like for city riding. Folding bead, fairly supple, never had a flat in over 100 city commute miles.
My favorite so far has been the General Grabber ATX. I will say I've used them in Alaska (lasted 4 full years up there), Arkansas, and Louisiana.
I had the PS4S for 3 summers and just got the G-Max RS this summer. Grip wise they seem to be a little better than the top tier all-seasons, but behind the top tier summers, which I expected. They still feel competent on my Stage 2 car.
I hated my Dunlops and love my Generals.
They are honestly not a bad tire from my limited experience and research. My best friend has them right now on his 2015 and says they have been surprisingly great.
General Artic Altimax are great tires.
I just got the G max RS on my Mk 7 from a dealer. Don’t know too much about track performance but they’re grippy if a little loud while on the highway.
On my '16 RT, the dealer installed a new set of Kenda KM1 sport touring tires when they prepped it to sell. I've put a couple hundred miles on the tires now, and I'm not crazy about them. Above 55mph, the entire bike feels like it's "squirming" slightly. You can feel a little instability in your hands, almost like you're riding on a highway with rain grooves.
