Tires Maxxis or PHANTOM
None of the above. Safety mo nakasalalay dyan. Always remember buy it nice or buy it twice. Go for reputable brands like Dunlop Michellin Pirelli or Maxxis.
I’m 84 kg, use Maxxis tires with an 2.5 Assegai EXO+ tire up front and a 2.4 DHR II DoubleDown casing in the rear. I ride and race reasonably hard/fast. I’m using 22/23, but when I have an EXO+ casing out back I have to up that a couple psi to keep from denting my rim.
The maxxis dth in the 2.3 has been my absolute favorite commuter tire for a long time. I still can't believe how light they are compared to other tires of this size. Tire tread is great for pavement and hard pack. Even had them out for some serious loaded touring and praised them.
I don't know if it is still relevant, but I put this Phantom on my 2020 Ridgeline, and I’m very happy. I saved at least $200. The tires were a little bit noisy in the beginning but after the first month much better ???? keep road as champ even under heavy rain. Totally recommend this tires!
Went from dhf/dhr II combo to kryptotal enduro soft fr/re and never coming back to maxxis
I really like the DHR as a front tire. I run it F/R sometimes. It has a slightly faster feel, good braking traction, enough bite to lay it over hard.
Excellent tire tread. But I recommend DD or DH casing instead of exo +, depending on the skill of trails you are planning to ride and how hard/advanced rider you are.
DHRs are grippy as hell but are not fast rolling. I swapped out for DHF and DHR to see about getting some extra grip and it was an absolute disaster when it came time to pedal. Ended up leaving the DHF on but putting the DHR back on the rear. I feel like it was a good compromise.
Get a new tire. But heads up maxxis are know to have wobble. My new set wobble a small bit but still shred
My maxxis tires usually last max 350miles in rear. My last dissector neede to be ditched after ~150-200 miles since knobs ripped apart.
