vs
Tires Maxxis or OEM Honda
I'm a City owner, and the OEM tires were terrible and noisy. Since switching to UC6s, I have zero complaints.
Pros: zero complaints
Cons: terrible and noisy
Vehicle:
Honda City
If you want something that’ll stretch closer to 15 to 20k km, the Maxxis Bighorn 2.0 has held up way better for me as my last set went just under 17k km before chunking.
Pros: held up way better
Cons: before chunking
Mileage: 17000 km
Since switching to Maxxis DoubleDown, I've had no problems at all.
Pros: no problems at all
If you want as much choice of casing and compound as possible go Maxxis - DHRII or Dissector. Dissector is faster rolling and perfect for dry loose rocky.
Pros: faster rolling, perfect
Cons: hard to get
For proper DH right now the most loved combo is Maxxis Assegai front / Minion DHR II rear, both in DH casing + MaxxGrip.
Pros: most loved combo
DHR II in the back, Assegai in the front is pretty good.
Pros: pretty good
Can be quality of tyre as well also your driving style. If tyre have soft compound it will go down quicker. I went trough set in 6 months. Maxxis premitra 5. Good grip but my god, they disappeared day by day.
Pros: Good grip
Cons: disappeared day by day
All that carbon fiber to make it light and easy to flick into corners - yet bro's never been past 15° lean. Waste of good rubber.
Pros: light and easy to flick
Cons: waste of good rubber
Vehicle:
Honda
I had these exact tires on an Acura TL. I wouldn't recommend them, they were not great in the winter. They were also really loud on the highway and they wore really quick.
Cons: loud, wore quick
Vehicle:
Acura TL
My little Honda Fit is so light that even with good snow tires I can't get anywhere if the roads are slick.
Pros: good snow tires
Cons: can't get anywhere
Vehicle:
Honda Fit
