Tires Nexen or Maxxis
Rekon is fantastic front tire for light trail/technical XC
Pros: fantastic front tire
If you know how to handle your bike the rekon race is fine up front. I raced that with an aspen out back at the 50 mile xc race up in Bend where it was dusty all day. I was also passing many people on the downhills.
Pros: fine front tire
I ride with 2.35" tires front and rear on my Ripmo, one that's a little beefier up front (Schwalbe Nobby Nic) and something that rolls better in the rear (Schwalbe Racing Ralph).
The bike came with Maxxis Assegai front and rear and for the first few rides I regretted getting the bike because it felt like such a pig. The lighter tires make pedaling on flat sections and climbs *so much* more enjoyable, and I can still push it on the descents.
Pros: lighter tires, more enjoyable
Cons: felt like a pig
if you can, stick to the Nexens - best price to quality ratio I've used thus far. :) Great Korean company.
Pros: best price to quality
For the Nexen, I had a set of Nexen Roadian AT tires and they worked well for me.
Pros: worked well
Maxxis Victra kuys if palit. Makapit sa basa at tuyo wag ka lang mag kakamali dumaan sa paint.
Pros: Makapit sa basa at tuyo
Cons: wag dumaan sa paint
Nexen negyévszakosom van, tegnap lemértem, letaposott havon, 50-ről nullára 10m a fekut. Nem tudom hogy ez jó vagy rossz, de ennyit tudom hogy hagynom kell magam előtt mindig.
Cons: hosszú fékút havon
I have no experience with this specific tire but I do know that a lot of Nexen tires I've seen previously wear rather fast.
Cons: wear rather fast
They're Nexen. Had an inspection done this year and found out they're already down to 2mm, and I noticed recently they all have shallow, small cracks all over the edges. I put about 47,000 km on them over the last 28 months. They're almost 3 years old, how are they already in such shit condition? I'm getting winter tires next week but do I really need to replace my all seasons so soon? How are they cracking already?
Pros: 47,000 km lifespan
Cons: cracks on edges, shallow tread
Mileage: 47000 km
My car has a bad tramlining habit when driving on those grooved concrete highways that are common throughout Northern California. It basically feels like the back of the car is swerving back and forth erratically even though the other all track remains consistent. It’s really only on concrete highways that have the long grooves parallel to the road. I’m wondering if this is a characteristic of these particular tires or more of an alignment issue or if it’s an overall ev6 thing. I’d actually consider replacing the tires before they’re worn out because I’m so sick of the behavior, but I don’t want to find myself dealing with the same issue on new, different tires. This is with the 19 inch wheels with the Nexen Nfera OEM tires.
Cons: bad tramlining habit, swerving erratically, sick of behavior
