Tires Maxxis or Sailun
Minimum ko is Maxxis.
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.
They are very grippy on dry (I'm using 205/45/17), steering response is fantastic, very direct. On wet they seem fine, though I'm driving very cautiously on wet.
You can get new Sailun tires for less than $115each from Big O Tires. They are good tires for the money, basically designed to do exactly what you need. New safe tires that fit a tight budget.
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.
That being said my experience says that the Sailun are a better choice. I have had less comebacks with this brand.
They hold air, haven't gotten popped, and seem to be holding up better than brand new goodyear wrangler tires and new bf Goodrich tires I've had to buy.
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.
Can’t speak for the GT, but the WSL2 is a mediocre tire. A friend of mine used those, and they worked, but were noisy when I rode in his car. He never complained about traction though.
Not happy, 25,000 km and two are separated, would definitely not recommend
