vs
Tires Uniroyal or Maxxis
I'm currently running Maxxis Razr AT811 tyres. They are pretty quiet and handle great on road, and are definitely capable offroad too.
Pros: pretty quiet, great on road, capable offroad
I only did a couple miles since adding them, but the difference is insane. Rolls like a road bike, but with WAY more confidence to go over anything. I can send it into a 90 degree road turn at full speed and it's not even pushing it. They're fast.
Pros: rolls like road bike, more confidence
True budget greats to me are definitely uniroyal rain sport 3. Not dead cheap but used em on the front of all my drift cars for grip and havent got a single complaint.
Pros: good grip, no complaints
Cons: not dead cheap
For a car like a C1 a decent mid-range tyre *that is A-rated for wet grip* would be fine.
Pros: decent mid-range tyre
Vehicle:
Citroen C1
Envy FF-2 19"x8.5" wheels on Uniroyal Power Paw A/S 255/40R19. Has made for a great combo so far. Went with performance all seasons vs summer only due to variety of weather we can get and spring/fall trips to the mountains.
Pros: great combo so far
Vehicle:
Ford
Uniroyal Rainsport 5's great in the Great British Wet
Pros: great in the wet
I need new tires for my taurus 255/45/19. They're all way too expensive except for the uniroyal tiger paws at $135 per tire. I'll be getting them.
Pros: affordable price
Cons: expensive tires
Vehicle:
Ford Taurus
I have 177000 miles on mine, I just went with the value tire. Uniroyal Tiger paws. great so far.
Pros: great so far
Mileage: 284852 km
I've been riding my **Maxxis Rekon 2.4" 3C EXO** for about **700km / 435mi** now and even though I was not over the top impressed, the mix between low rolling resistance and decent grip in dry conditions was satisfying and totally met my demands - even on some rough, deep red (S2-S3) trails.
**On my last ride**, my impressions changed dramatically. The ground conditions might have been slightly looser than most of my rides but certainly nothing I havent already seen before or ridden on over the last couple of months.
After only a few kilometers, I felt **zero confidence in the tires to grip, they dealt scarily bad with loose (dry) trails** and I even crashed once
Pros: low rolling resistance, decent grip
Cons: zero confidence in grip
Mileage: 700 km
The Ardent sucks by most accounts. Read this article from [NSMB.com](https://nsmb.com/articles/ask-uncle-dave-talking-tires-maxxis/) where the Maxxis rep basically says the only reason Ardent's are even made anymore is because people recognize the name. Rekon 2.4 is my vote (not a particularly wide 2.4, more like a 2.35). Some have mentioned the Ardent Race, but the Rekon has way better cornering traction than an ardent race, and bigger center knobs than an ardent race for braking traction.
Pros: better cornering traction
Cons: Ardent sucks
