Tires Maxxis or COMFORSER
Rekon is fantastic front tire for light trail/technical XC
Pros: fantastic front tire
If you know how to handle your bike the rekon race is fine up front. I raced that with an aspen out back at the 50 mile xc race up in Bend where it was dusty all day. I was also passing many people on the downhills.
Pros: fine front tire
I ride with 2.35" tires front and rear on my Ripmo, one that's a little beefier up front (Schwalbe Nobby Nic) and something that rolls better in the rear (Schwalbe Racing Ralph).
The bike came with Maxxis Assegai front and rear and for the first few rides I regretted getting the bike because it felt like such a pig. The lighter tires make pedaling on flat sections and climbs *so much* more enjoyable, and I can still push it on the descents.
Pros: lighter tires, more enjoyable
Cons: felt like a pig
Maxxis Victra kuys if palit. Makapit sa basa at tuyo wag ka lang mag kakamali dumaan sa paint.
Pros: Makapit sa basa at tuyo
Cons: wag dumaan sa paint
I also run 60 on the pump track. I notice the sidewall rolling over and you can hear it scrubbing when down at the pressure I dirt jump with (35). You'll have a more confident experience with the higher pressure forsure.
Ran maxxis holly rollers for years, and recently got a set of billy bonkers and I've been very happy with them.
Pros: confident experience, higher pressure
Cons: sidewall rolling over
I hate to throw another tire in there but I urge you to check out Maxxis Razr AT811s. I put them on my 22 Tundra a little less Than 3 years ago and I have not been disappointed. They're 50,000 Mi Tire and they are wearing great so far. I'm at 25,000 miles and they're not even half worn so I guarantee I will be going over 50 on them. They're pretty good and wet conditions and they three Peak Mountain snowflake rated and I can confirm that they are amazing in the snow. They are more budget friendly tire but I can attest to their quality. They do make a little noise going down the highway, but nothing too terrible. Go ahead. Check them out.
Pros: amazing in the snow
Cons: little noise
Vehicle:
Toyota Tundra
Mileage: 40233 km
I ran a set for 45k kilometres on my TJ with suspension aligned nicely and liked them. Hard tyre, so wet grip when cold is below average.
Pros: good mileage, liked them
Cons: hard tyre, poor wet grip
Vehicle:
Jeep Wrangler
Mileage: 45000 km
Ive got comforser 1100’s on the truck they are pretty common around here.good in snow and mud, they are ok on the highway I’ve put 75000km on them and am only about halfway through their lifespan and average 9.2l/100 (~26mpg.)with the babydiesel going about 130-140km/h (80-90mph) the biggest issue is they have to be rotated every oil change and aren’t as good as more expensive options in the rain.
Pros: good in snow and mud
Cons: not good in rain
Mileage: 75000 km
This is one of the reasons I stopped buying Maxxis tires. Really, all tires will do it to a certain degree but Maxxis seem to be the worse IMO.
Cons: Maxxis seem worse
I would highly recommend passing up maxxis tires. Those things are so danged slow. Vittoria Mexcals or Teravail oxbows are what I’d look for.
Pros: Vittoria Mexcals recommended
Cons: maxxis tires slow
