Tires Kumho or Maxxis
They are nice tires that roll really well. Mud and other soft ground can be an issue with the low tread and cornering can be a bit iffy with minuscule side knobs and rounded profile.
If you liked the XR4 the Rekon is probably the closest, or Ardent. It's worked well for me everywhere I've taken it from Duluth to Moab, and everything in between.
Dissector front, Aggressor rear. All the grip you ever need unless you are a DH pro - and way faster than DHF/DHR
The Assegai has the best climbing traction I've ever had (used to run DHRIIs, which would be a good option as well).
After some time, I’ve discovered the Dissector is particularly sensitive to tire pressure. After I dropped the pressure a couple of psi (I’m running the 2.4WT version on a 35mm inner width 29” rim, and have settled on 24-25psi), the Dissector is running great.
V730 is only other tire that’s cheap and works well. My personal experience on them is on a Miata, I was shocked how good they worked.
Go with the Kumho V730. They are the cheapest tire per corner, wear VERY well (about 100 runs before they cord…WITHOUT flipping). They are exactly what you need for a low-camber GS car.
I run them on my Highlander and they have been great. This thing eats tires but they last around 40k miles on the Highlander. Definitely recommend!
I run Falkens, but used to run Kumho, and they wear pretty quick.........
I tried kumhos on my gti and x3. Not happy with them. After some wear they get really loud and feel un balanced
