vs
Tires Maxxis or Achilles
Having ridden the XR5, XR/SE4, DHF, DHR2, Dissector the XR5 is closest to the DHR2 3C EXO. If you liked the XR5 as a front, you'll get along really well with the DHR2.
Pros: good front tire
Looks like the dhr2/aggressor would be the closest match looking at the tread and tread size. You could go with the slightly slower (contentious claim on here) but more common front dhf/aggressor. I prefer the dhr2 over the dhf but giving the assegai a try once trails are opened here.
Pros: prefer dhr2 over dhf
Cons: slightly slower
Edit: I run a DHF/Dissector combo, grippy in the front, speedier but still grippy in the rear.
Pros: grippy in the front
Cons: speedier in the rear
I've put a couple hundred K's on mine and so far I love them. Great for street, gravel, dry dirt. The only issue I've had is the occasional wet mud on a trail. These get real squirmy in wet corners but I can't fault the tire, that's not what they're designed for.
Pros: great for street, gravel
Cons: squirmy in wet corners
Mileage: 200 km
I switched from the momentums to the grifters and am glad I did.
If you’re looking for a good budget tire, have a look at the Achilles atr sport 2 tires. Got a set last summer and they grip awesome.
Pros: grip awesome
I bought a Trek Fuel EX this year, which comes with XR4 tires. I switched to Maxxis DHR/DHF after a month, and the improvement in grip is very noticeable. On technical climbs, its pretty easy for me to lose traction with the XR4 when I'm putting a lot of power down on a steep section. With the Maxxis tires on those same climbs, I never spin out. On the other hand, the rolling resistance is higher.
Pros: improvement in grip noticeable
Cons: rolling resistance higher
I had the ATR Sport 2 on my Mazda 6 and they had excellent grip for an inexpensive tire. Good in the rain.
Pros: excellent grip, good in rain
Vehicle:
Mazda 6
Mileage: 10000 km
I also plan on installing the Achilles tires in the near future after powder coating my wheels, am anxious to see how they wear and handle
Pros: anxious to see handling
Cons: anxious to see wear
They suck lol. They are loud, they hyrdoplane like a motherfucker, grooved pavement like overpasses makes them do this weird shimmy thing, and they wear quick. They cause the ABS to kick on super early, and lose traction fast.
Cons: loud, wear quick
