Tires OEM BMW or Maxxis
Maxxis or Michelin Wild Enduros. I use 2.4 Enduros coming from 2.3 high rollers. The Enduros just stick man, sideways.
Pros: just stick sideways
maxxis ardent in 26" are decent if you find it in 3C it's a nice tire for trail enduro.
Pros: nice tire, trail enduro
I'm also currently running a MAXXIS Desert IT front tire on my KTM 1090 tubeless wheel without issue. Its a hard compound tire that is designed for the tough stuff, and I also recommend it.
Pros: designed for tough stuff
HD thrust arms are an improvement without too much sacrifice. Better shocks as well. I’ve found tires make a huge difference with the E39.
Pros: huge difference with tires
Vehicle:
BMW
The best blend of traction and longevity I've ridden so far is Maxxis Minions in the 60 compound. They held up to multiple days in Whistler Bike Park and were still in fine shape.
Pros: traction and longevity
Narrow, low-profile tires aren't as forgiving over potholes, especially when riding on the 20" wheels.
Cons: not forgiving over potholes
Vehicle:
BMW
I just put on my 285 75 16 maxxis at811s a few days ago. Road noise is almost none, you would have to turn the speakers off and listen for it. Load rating E so stiffness is definitely a given. Braking is definitely harder because of the weight.
Pros: road noise almost none
Cons: braking is harder
Gotta say, I've been a big fan of my maxxis tires. Super solid tire for a brand that isn't exactly a household name (I wouldn't call them offbrand, just not a big name).
Pros: super solid tire
Aggressor has all the traction of a Dhr while rolling a touch faster. It's pretty shit in the wet though.
Pros: good traction, faster rolling
Cons: shit in the wet
If you've got the OE supplied tires on ANY trailer, I'd make a VERY strong recommendation to swap them out for a reputable brand as soon as possible.
Pros: reputable brand
Cons: cheap junk tire
Mileage: 5000 km
