Tires OEM Toyota or Maxxis

well... most durable would be some DH tire,
just with "fast" tread, like **Maxxis** Dissector DH ?
Pros: durable
I run maxxis ravagers 700x40 they take a beating and actually roll way better than they look like they would.
Pros: roll way better
Yea. Also. 17+. Has hill assist for getting rolling uphill which is a nice option.\n\nOtherwise. It’s good as long as you keep up on the maintenance.. I bought a 15’ with 120k miles and did all the major recent work when I got it and it’s a great car\n\nHandles well in the rain even on those stock tires n wheels. Good. OG 86 car…
Pros: handles well in rain, good maintenance
Vehicle:
Toyota
Mileage: 120000 km
It's a good little car. Fast enough to be fun but no so much to be too stupid. Well balanced. \n\nSpend a bit less money on the car, and buy a second set of wheels. \n\nYour best looking wheels out some good 200 tread wear summer tires on. Vitour P1 or Rival RS if you want them to last a while. \n\nLeast favorite wheels out Continental DWS-06+ all seasons (or proper four season tires if you're in a snowbelt state).\n\nThis is a car that responds well to grip.
Pros: good balance, responds well to grip
Cons: Continental DWS-06+ all seasons
Vehicle:
Toyota
The 3CT (MaxxTerra?) is a much more suitable rear tyre compound and it's already on the softer side, I can't imagine ever running a Maxxgrip rear tyre outside of pro racing as it's slow rolling and wears out incredibly fast.
Pros: suitable rear tyre compound
Cons: slow rolling, wears fast
The new corollas have AWD. Throw winters on and youd be unstoppable.
Pros: AWD, unstoppable
Vehicle:
Toyota Corolla
I never get punctures with EXO. Problem I have is the sidewall flops when I lean into fast corners with tire pressures under 25psi and that makes the cornering feel unpredictable.
Pros: no punctures
Cons: unpredictable cornering
I don’t have enough experience on Spesh tires other than the Sworks Fasttrack/Renegade I bought last year on a similar sale. They weigh in at around 620g each in the 2.35 size, which is much lighter than my Rekon Race 2.4WT at 780g. Feels nice to lose that much rotational weight and the grip I found to be similar. Also similar efficiency. What I didn’t like was the flimsy sidewall. There’s a reason they are so light. Lots of tire squirm and feeling of folding over in turns unless I ran high PSI (+5PSI compared to the Rekon Race). This is on a 30mm IW rim. Also, I had to use my tire plug for the first time on the front tire (Fasttrack). I’ve gone back to a slow XC setup of Rekon/Rekon Race this year but with a race or two coming up I’m debating what to do. I’m intrigued by the Aspen/Rekon Race combo but Aspen’s weigh about the same as my Rekon Race.
Pros: similar efficiency, nice grip
Cons: flimsy sidewall, tire squirm
Expect to go slower. DH is for downhill. My bike came with those and my God it was a slog on flat, rolling and uphill. And forget about accelerating out of turns.
Cons: slog on flat
Huh. When I try the DHF in back, the braking is just to unpredictable for me.
Cons: unpredictable braking
