vs
Tires Uniroyal or Maxxis
DHR II in the back, Assegai in the front is pretty good.
Pros: pretty good
I used to buy CEAT, MRF and APOLLO before. For my Himalayan Apollo was the worst in terms of wet grip. Am trying Maxxiss RN and it's the best in Budget
Pros: best in Budget
Cons: Apollo worst wet grip
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
I run a taller/skinnier than stock Uniroyal Laredo AT in my truck and love them.
Pros: love them, taller/skinnier
2nd pic shows dry rot cracking. Odd for a new tire after 6,000mi. You could try warranty through Uniroyal.
Cons: dry rot cracking
Mileage: 6000 km
Consumer reports says:
Pros: Solid performance in the areas of dry braking, handling, hydroplaning resistance. Solid treadlife performance also.
Cons: Just average rolling resistance performance which can have a negative impact on vehicle fuel efficiency.
Pros: Solid dry braking, handling
Cons: average rolling resistance
It's a uniroyal, probably has pinched steel in sidewall, it will blow sooner than later. Junk it.
Cons: pinched steel in sidewall
2012 Kia Sedona, just got 4 new tires installed at BJs warehouse. Uniroyal Tiger Paws Touring 235/60 R17. Mounted and balanced by them.
Why do they look squished? Like the sidewalls are collapsing? They are inflated to 34psi. They track straight, but not a smooth ride.
Pros: tracks straight
Cons: look squished, not smooth ride, sidewalls collapsing
Vehicle:
Kia
