Tires YOKOHAMA or Maxxis
Great set of tires, I have used multiple sets. Quiet on the road, works well in the wet, and works great for a lapping tire as well and a fraction of the price of its Michelin counterparts.
Just got rid of my Nittos for the Advans, so far a better tire. Best part is one of the few tires in the OE size that has a 25k mileage warranty.
Yokohama ADVAN Sport A/S. I've had them on there for 3 years, I've been happy. I live in a place that doesn't get incredibly cold or snowy, more like 3 seasons with occasional freezing temps, so they do well in those conditions.
Yokohama G015, has cool looking sidewalls, but quiet like standard passenger cars, can still do a surprising amount of light-offroad, great in rain.
On 2nd set of Yokohama advans. Much better than OEMs
Am running Yoko's Apex Summer Tires. Very pleased on my 2017 Touring.
I ride on a DHR2 rear in DD casing and MaxxTerra compound, and an Assegai front in EXO+ MaxxGrip. Really good combo for the descents but a little bit slow on the climbs.
The Maxxis Ikon in dual compound would be a good choice. It won't have great grip on wet roots or rocks, but sounds like that's not a concern.
They run a bit narrow but I haven’t measured
I found them to be pretty garbage for traction even on dry pavement, but they were quiet and smooth and lasted very well.
