vs
Tires NANKANG or Maxxis
Looks like the dhr2/aggressor would be the closest match looking at the tread and tread size. You could go with the slightly slower (contentious claim on here) but more common front dhf/aggressor. I prefer the dhr2 over the dhf but giving the assegai a try once trails are opened here.
Pros: prefer dhr2 over dhf
Cons: slightly slower
Edit: I run a DHF/Dissector combo, grippy in the front, speedier but still grippy in the rear.
Pros: grippy in the front
Cons: speedier in the rear
Nankang worked well for me
Pros: worked well
I've put a couple hundred K's on mine and so far I love them. Great for street, gravel, dry dirt. The only issue I've had is the occasional wet mud on a trail. These get real squirmy in wet corners but I can't fault the tire, that's not what they're designed for.
Pros: great for street, gravel
Cons: squirmy in wet corners
Mileage: 200 km
I have nankang ar1s on my mclaren 12c. Great track tire
Pros: great track tire
I switched from the momentums to the grifters and am glad I did.
I bought a Trek Fuel EX this year, which comes with XR4 tires. I switched to Maxxis DHR/DHF after a month, and the improvement in grip is very noticeable. On technical climbs, its pretty easy for me to lose traction with the XR4 when I'm putting a lot of power down on a steep section. With the Maxxis tires on those same climbs, I never spin out. On the other hand, the rolling resistance is higher.
Pros: improvement in grip noticeable
Cons: rolling resistance higher
NS2 review: I've never been able to get them balanced properly and they're loud. Even forced balanced on brand new wheels, I got highway vibrations. That said, they're inexpensive, last decently long for the price, handle water extremely well and they stretch nicely. They handle water better than falken 512's, 452's and hankook v12 evo's. I've had 4 sets and I've never had a bubble or other failure.
Pros: inexpensive, last long, excellent water handling, stretch nicely, no failures
Cons: hard to balance, loud, highway vibrations
a bit noisy when worn but they stretch well and last plenty long. I usually buy them when going for new tires. NS-II
Pros: stretch well, last long
Cons: noisy when worn
lol i wanna know too, my nankangs wore way to fast for me.
Cons: wore way to fast
