Tires Toyo or KENDA
I like the Toyo AT-2or3 good and grippy in slop, hardly any road noise that I've noticed on the highway.
Kenda Klever RTs. I've never been so happy with a tire. I also ran Terra Grappler G2s that seemed to do well.
I run Kendra honey badger 2.05” wide so my fully ridged xc carbon bike. They’re great all round tyres. Get a bit slippy on the sloppy!
I don’t think I’ll run a different tire on my crosstrek again
So for I like them more than the ko2s. They seem more quite over the ko2s. I think they are a thicker ply tire than the ko2s and can support more weight as well. I get about 20mpg hwy at 79mph.
If you’re looking for a great off-road, snow tire that’s also good on pavement and doesn’t hum like crazy might I recommend the Toyo open country AT 3.
By contrast, the Toyo Celsius has not only been tested in the winter, but it even performed well on ice. (Well, at least as well on ice as a non-winter tire can possibly do.)
I've been running the Kenda Kruz on my Wide Glide for a few years now, I'm very happy with them! Great rain tire and I get more miles out of them then Dunlop tires.
In run kenda K35 tires (but not gumwall) and they are ok budget tires. They work well but are not especially light, grippy or puncture-resistant.
My Scout came from the factory Kenda tires. I am wholly not impressed with them, after 9,000 km they are just starting to scrub in for turning grip. I am also under the understanding that these factory tires are only good for 10,000km, so I will be changing none the less.
The addition of any moisture to the rear wheel, including from dew or fog reduces grip friction into the realm of nonexistence making for a disconcerting riding experience.
