vs
Tires NANKANG or Maxxis
Assegai MaxxGrip is a lot, but awesome on loose over hard and great on everything else except mud.
Pros: awesome on loose over hard
Cons: a lot
Nothing wrong with DHF front and rear, a little faster than DHR II and still plenty of braking grip.
Pros: plenty of braking grip
Cons: wears super quickly
Nankang ns2 is really good!
Pros: really good
Nankang ns2/ns2r, lotta bang for the buck
Pros: lotta bang for buck
Personally, I will never not recommend Maxxis Re-Fuse. Crappy city streets strewn with broken everything, one puncture in a dozen years. I’m on my third pair only because treads wear out. Not the greatest rolling resistance, apparently, but not really a concern for me
Pros: one puncture in years
Cons: not greatest rolling resistance
A Maxxis Shorty in DD casing and Max-Grip compound is about as slow a tyre as you can get - a Maxxis Rekon Race in Exo casing and Max-Speed compound is about the fastest thing you can put on your rims.
Pros: fastest thing
Cons: slow a tyre
Approaching 15.000 km with them, (225 50 r15), thought that may be interesting to refer my impressions. They are perfect off road and on road at 200km/h +, never detecting slippage under rain or in sharp turns. EDL and ABS rarely engaged, (both working perfectly). There are no signs of premature wear, neither they are loosing pressure.
Pros: perfect off road, no slippage
Cons: Nankang does not recommend

I ride them and have have never really had a problem with em. That being said, I feel like they aren’t the right tires for me.
Cons: aren’t the right tires
For Maxxis exo I couldn't go below 25 in the rear without bashing my rim and getting flats.
Cons: bashing rim, getting flats
I had a set on a 2008 F-250 work truck. Wore down quickly ~15K miles and unevenly. Felt like hard plastic chunks when cold, noisy, no off road traction. Had one blow out at about 60 mph and later on I had another tire get a tumbleweed puncture in the sidewall. They were trash. Swapped them out for a proper set of tires.
Cons: wore quickly, uneven wear, hard when cold, noisy, no off-road traction, blowouts, punctures
