I wrecked hard on gravel with stock tires, went with Kenda big blocks and got all my confidence back. Little different on the road, would only recommend if you do more off road riding.
I can recommend Kenda Big Blocks, they’ve been great on every surface I’ve been on. I’ve done 4800km trip over two weeks and they held up ok. They lasted about 9000km in total.
As someone with 180,000 on a Tesla and tried both LRR/EV/non-ev tires, YES!! So far my favorite for efficiency is the Sailun E-Range tire, second is Michelin MXM4.
I have sailun e-range EV tires and they've been great for 8K miles so far. People (who don't own them) crap on these tires because they're not a big name but you can't beat the price. As far as traction, they did the trick avoiding a deer on the interstate with a hard brake and little evasive maneuver.
Sailun pricing is really good, and some of the posts i have seen do indeed say range has increased. also, compared to what came on the car, the tire is indeed quieter and smoother.
Great tire, long life, smooth quiet. 80MPH, 110mile per day commute no complaints. Decent in snow and rain too (we live in northern NM). We were concerned but they are just as good or better than your average name brand tire.
I like the kenda kasier KR20A , they are sporty and have great performance, plus they are relatively cheap
Our shop puts on a fair amount of those Sailuns because people like the price point they carry. They generally hold up ok although the Terramax A/Ts 10 plys dont hold up great for anything bigger than a half ton truck.
Cheap Kenda tires will be heavy and not made terribly well. Not to the point of being unsafe, but there is a noticeable difference in performance between a cheap Kenda tire and something like a Continental race king or Vittoria mezcal.
For rears, Ironman Imove or Accelera PHI. Kendas are overrated.
