vs
Tires Maxxis or Giti
Me and my girlfriend have both been running tubeless Maxxis folder tires on Easton Rims for five seasons and I never had any problems mounting them.
Pros: no problems mounting
I've mounted and remounted a handful of EXO casing maxxis tires recently with almost no effort at all. Typically I don't even use a lever to mount them, only remove. They all seated on the first try with a hand pump too.
Pros: no effort to mount
I've had to mount two different DHFs in the past couple of weeks and both times struggled to even get the tire onto the rim. Super tight to lever over the edge and had to be meticulously centered as low as possible on the opposite side just to have a chance. It seemed to take a lot more pressure than usual to get the bead to seat. I like the performance so far, and it is a go-to tire around here
Pros: like the performance
Cons: super tight, hard to mount
They're fantastic for DE's / non-competition for all the reasons you list. I 100% recommend for HPDE for both performance and bang-for-buck. Pros: -They last a very long time compared to every other R compound tire out there (I've run Toyo, Hankook, Hoosier, etc etc.) -Cheap compared to other 100 treadwear tires. They ship straight from Maxxis and come with a T-shirt. -Not a lot of fade, both during a session and over multiple heat cycles -They give you a lot of feedback and tend not to snap loose
Pros: long lasting, cheap
Cons: slower lap times
Vehicle:
Mazda
+1 they look like correct for a Jeep tire vs everything else out there and I'm pretty happy with them over the last 15000 miles or so.
Pros: happy with them
Vehicle:
Jeep
Mileage: 24140 km
Maxxis makes pretty durable tires. High roller rolls a little slow but grips well, Ardent rolls pretty fast and offers decent grip.
Pros: durable tires, decent grip
Cons: high roller rolls slow
I am a big fan of the Crossmarks. They are definitely not as grippy as something like the Ardent, but they are very, very fast.
Pros: very fast
Cons: not as grippy
If you are looking at 25c, I think Maxxis Re-fuse is a much better deal at about half the price.
Pros: better deal, half price
Mileage: 16000 km
I run 2.35s and it certainly doesn't fit super well, however it's not that big of a deal. but if i'm going to have it on the rack for a longer drive I just air down the tire. i run the nevegal dh tire or the maxxis holy roller so the sidewall knobs interfere, I just crank down the straps.
Pros: straps crank down
Cons: doesn't fit super well
If the DHFs are hard to mount on a given rim, particularly Stans, wait till you try a Maxxis Ikon. One of the hardest tyres I've ever installed.
Cons: hardest tyre to install
