Tires YOKOHAMA or KENDA
I bought a set of 31 mph ***ebike rated*** Kevlar lined Kenda street tires when I converted my Yamaha mountain bike from the stock aggressive knobbies - among other mods. My use is 100% street.
I ride them hard at high speeds almost every day, take round abouts at absurd lean angles and have ZERO complaints.
Tengo cuatro Yoko en mí Focus, aunque en rodado 17". Pero antes en el Fiesta tuve dos juegos de Yokohama, así que puedo decirte con seguridad que son excelentes cubiertas.
Lo vas a notar sobre todo en piso mojado...
Muy buenas , tuve 4 en otro auto y le hice algo de 78.000 km , las cambie porque se habían resecado, pero todavía estaban 1mm más o menos arriba de la marca .
Tengo los ES BluEarth y son la mejor compra q le hice al auto
Kenda UHP Max+ are a great double-duty tire. They last long and have great grip. They are pretty good in wet conditions too.
I really liked the Yokohama Advan’s for the money and the Continental extreme Contacts for their rain grooves and their performance exceeds a Ps4s (on my car anyway)
I had mt2 285/75/16 on my hilux surf, I now have Yokohama geolanders. I would say the kendas are a bit softer compound and quieter, but the geolanders are a bit better in the mud. The kendas were awesome tyres off and on road though.
For example the K193 Tires were made to be super puncture resistant at a higher PSI than the first K Series(100PSI) but due to budgeting, they had to sacrifice handling, and also some rolling resistance, they do roll nice but not the best, they handle like crap, and aren’t not safe in the rain despite being advertised as such..lol… they also wear like iron, after 8,000 miles i still have life left them in and never had any puncture issues compared to other tires.
I've got a set of Yokohama tires I use for the summer. Very little wear on them, they've seen about 15,000 km total use, not cracked or dry rotted, stored indoors over the winter. They are however from 2016. This year I started hearing a whine in the front end, sounded a bit like a wheel bearing. On freshly laid asphalt it's silent or nearly so. On older pavement it's louder. On the highway in rain, it got REALLY loud, and I could feel a hum in the pedal. Like, loud enough I slowed to about 80kph as I was worried something was going to let go on the car. Pavement went dry? Went back to the normal "bearing" noise. Theres no shaking or balance issues, they drive true and straight, it's just this noise. Car is a 2011 santa fe, in Canada. I bought the tires new in 2016.
tread ware has been very good it took my mechanic an entire box of weights to balance them and they still shake ride quality on the highway is terrible wont buy again
