@@singlehackenduro8877 absolutely running your tires bald is losing performance, however I do a lot of trail riding and some road riding, I also have a 280lb enduro so I’m not riding motor cross or extreme enduro, I’ll take the loss in performance and enjoy those fresh tires when I can! The tires I put on my bike are mostly race take offs, so I end up with great tires that have a few races max on them.

This is such a good approach. I've watched so many bike reviews (from other authors) that quickly degenerate into differences in OEM tires and OEM spring rates, which are nearly irrelevant.
I would love to say thank you very much for this video Me and my 2 sons took your advice and put this exact setup on our bikes 2 gasgas ec300 and a yz 250x for the woods and we just rode 4 Hatfield and McCoy systems in 8 days!!!!! They done outstanding we have been riding those mountains for 20 years and they throw every kind of terrain imaginable including pavement as that’s part of the trail system we went with IRC and 2psi we even done 3 days of pure rain riding 🙏🙏🙏anyone wondering and watching this listen to this man he will not steer you wrong form tires clear to his straps it’s all good 👍 thanks a million brother and if your wondering about Hatfield and McCoy trails DO IT !!!!!! It’s well worth it….thanks again and keep the great videos coming!!!!
I ordered the Bridgestone and IRC tires from your link that you suggested in the video since the Ride220 tires are out of stock. Thanks for the great videos which have helped me improve my riding.
It's really amazing how it can be different regarding which country you live in. For example, here in France for offroad (for "Enduro", not "Motocross") 80% of us are riding with Metzeler ("Six days" version) and/or Michelin ("Enduro Medium" version) . Both are FIM approved tires -> We are not allowed to use motocross tires on road. In enduroGP championship it's kinda the same. Since your way of riding (trails / mountains etc) is more or less the same as what we call enduro, I'm really questionning myself: Does this difference comes from use, regulation, brand origin or smthg else.. + how do they compare to the ones you are using (I've never seen Gekkota tires here for instance) ?
Just because he has a YT channel does not mean he knows more than you. In fact, I bet he doesn't. The internet is full of mediocrity and irrationality, and unfortunately so is the sport today and the world. Just look at the "preferred" handlebar set up today,---like they all need foot clearance for freestyle tricks. Not one of them can explain the benefits of setting up ape hangers. We are entering a era of irrationality, and I thought dirt bikes would be the last to go stupid, but it is happening all at the same time in every industry,---in the world. This guy is evidence.
I couldn’t agree more with Kyle. I have been riding all my life on multiple sets of different tires and many different terrains. Once I put these tires on my bike, it increased my game huge time.
I'm rolling around w/ a Shinko front tire on a cr250 r, tire is a bit oversized, it works great for off road/ forest/ mud/slop/ greasy glop. It's a bit heavier, so not best for MX tracks & lots of airtime; but durable & bites good in the awful stuff.( Got a Michelin hardpack MX tire on rear, not great in sand & mud, but this is my best combo to ride & minimise flat tires, using inner tubes)
I used to get almost new, free roadracing slicks from the fast, heavily sponsored guys after am practice, when they would put on new rubber. Most of those tires were already getting blue and greasy on the shoulders, so the price was right.
VE33s- I ran it with tubeliss great 1st few hours technical terrain was great, then went to desert and was too lazy to change it out. Knobs tore off and sidewall tore where tubeliss rim lock is. ( I was abusing it at speed and was only running about 6 psi) but still...
I have ridden a KTM 300 for the past 20 years across the SE USA with the M59 up front and like you said its a tire I can trust to perform whether in tight rooty clay or in sandy loam . The side knobs start to tear after about 60 hours of hard riding which can feel it as surprise stutter in bumpy turns so know its time to get a new one. I run regular duty tubes at 12.5-13.5 psi off road and 15 psi for dual sporting. It clears mud well and gives good to very good sharp bump absorption. Its expensive but a lot cheaper than a broken finger or wrist so I pay the premium for a great tire. I tried a couple other brands , taking them off after one long ride mostly due to excess deflection off roots and rocks. I got knob spitting after 20 hours on the great Kenda VE33 rear so switched to Kenda Millville 2 which can flip direction depending on terrain and its pretty durable . Never spit a knob on it .
@@markh3478 thanks for the reply! I got tubliss in the rear right now, and installed in the front as well but it’s leaking…. So I’m debating on trying to fix it or just go heavy duty tube
I’m A back yard bandit . I’ve got a lot of power on a 2 stroke ktm . I ended up in the wood bc my back tire didn’t bring me down from 12 o’clock so I went in woods at about 30 mph . Going to get tires today 💪
You clearly know what you're talking about and have the experience Kyle. Nice vid dude. Us guys in thailand run some local MX tyres on our enduro bikes on the rear and run a decent tyre up front. Thai mx works fine for most applications out here.
Hey kyle, just wanna ask what rim size do you use or the best rim sizes for you? I mean the width of the rim. For front, 1.6" or 1.85"? For rear, 1.85" or 2.15"? What would be the advantage/disadvantage of wide/narrow width rims? TIA. More power on your channel!
Nothing works well for such a variation of dirt. I can't wait to try the mew Dunlop MX14 for the sandy whooped out trails I love to ride, and take it easy on the hard ground spots. No other tire will hook up like that scoop tire on anything it can dig it paddle/knobs into. You did say "work well" didn't you? I take that literally. If you are spinning too much, hit the next gear. :)
Thanks Kyle! Try these on my old xr400r, absolutely love them. Off camber trails in the desert and that gecko just holds firm along with the M59 up front. I departed from the IRC on the rear of my new KTM 500 and I'm trying the new Tusk Recon hybrid. While it's a decent tire, I'll be going back to the IRC VE33S first incredible off-camber performance. The Tusk hybrid concerned me a couple times in Flagstaff on off-camber stuff.
our tire selection we can chose from is really good. Ive been trail riding a Bridgestone x30 up front, for me its better at desert racing than trail riding. M59 is next, but the x30 lasts a Loooong time. I have a mousse up front, but will do TuBliss with the M59, really good combo! Cant wait to hear about your next tire test! Id rather you test than me, you save me $$ 😁👍
wish we could get the ve 33 gekota in australia, i have been running the normal ve33 and it is a absolute beast , best all round tire i have ever used and i have put 50 hours on it and the knobs are still huge !!
Irc all day for rear had the bridge stone m59 as my last front tire now I have a Michelin soft front and like how it grips a little better. But I’m going to try Starcross medium next to see how I like that
I know this video is a few years old but are these two tires still your favorites? I am ready to put new tires on my 2009 300XC-W and will use your link.
Those tires like pretty sweet. I like the pirelli scorpion mx32 for the front and the pirelli MT16 for the rear on my yz250x. Those seem to work pretty well for me. Good review though. Always nice to hear other people's opinions on different tires for different options.
The irc is a great preforming tire, for the first couple to few rides. But I was really disappointed with the durability, and tread life. I know it's a gummy tire, and I didn't expect it to last too long, but I was surprised at how quick it wore out. Middle knobbies non existent after maybe 15 to 20 hours. And the terrain i ride isn't extremely hard or rocky either. Initially it probably had the best traction out of any tire I've road, but the trade off in durability isn't worth it for me.
Have you done a review of the Maxis Desert IT tires? What are your thoughts on these compared to the tires in this review. I ride out here in Arizona where the terrains constantly change.
Isn't the AT81 a hard to intermidiate tire? Ex isnew to me had a AT81 on my yzx stock thought it was garbage .up front the side knobs ripped all the way off thought it was a fluke and replace only to have it happen again .I am gun shy of dunlops
Kyle, I’ve watched a few of your tire vids and they’re great, lots of good info on them. As was commented earlier you haven’t tested any Metzeler tires, specifically the 6 days. The 6 days are about the same cost as Michelins and cheaper than most Motoz and Golden tyre and are available in the US from most suppliers. Any chance you can test a 6 days and see what you think especially in the area you ride? Thanks.
I'm in Seattle Washington where it's rain alot in winter with mud wet rocks do you have any experience with a rear tire in really wet conditions what do you recommend ?
Ho Kyle iam currently running a Michelin starcross 5 medium compound front tyre with tubliss. Was running 10psi due to rocky trial.after 100km on brand new tyre has got 3 plugs in it and dent in rim . Is this carcass too soft?
You mean my front always trying to toss me up and out of ruts could just be the tire???? Smh Any experience with the Pirelli MT21? I have to use DOT tires so i can rip my Fe350S around town. Dunlop D606 is fantastic on all single track btw.
I do a lot of remote off the grid riding through Nevada, Arizona, and California so durability, puncture, and tear resistance are more important to me than traction. Getting stranded 50 miles from nowhere is what concerns me the most. I've been running the Maxxis Maxxross Desert IT because it's the only tire I've run that I haven't gotten a tear or puncture with. My long rides usually span over 3-4 days and 5-600 miles. Any recommendations for a durable tire for those longer more remote rides over sharp rocky terrain? Thanks
Choices? My ‘82 Husky has a 17” rear wheel. Unless I want to run dual sport, I’ve only been able to find 1 tire to fit (IRC VE33, not the s). Tubliss isn’t available in 17”, either. Perhaps you could flex your influencer muscles and put in a word... There should be a market for the dual sport adventure riders, right? When I need a new front tire, I will be trying that M59.

Hey, thanks for asking me but you spelt my name wrong. The tyres on my bike are still the original 1970's tyres. They don't make tyres like that anymore.

Hey thanks Luke but my name isn't Kyle. Hybrid smylbride. They're a bit like a chocolate cake. Too much chocolate, not enough chocolate. Why you not loyal to a brand? Dunlop gets 6 GRAND a tyre. Do you realize how much income that gives them? They don't have to make a dirt bike tyre at all.
The m59 is by far my favorite front tire. I did two rides on a shinko 546 and hated it. Ordered the m59 and have been very happy with it. I doubt I’ll try another front as long as they make the m59.
@@dreyn7780 it’s the front tire, so i guess the only effect it has on wheel spin is, i can come out of corners pretty hard with out feel like the front is going to push or wash out on me.
@@dreyn7780 yeah I think we got our wires crossed. The m59 is the front and it never spins on me. It grips amazing and i haven’t had a problem with it feeling like it’s going to wash out on me. It’s very planted and confidence inspiring.
Every bike is different every Rider is different because I don't like either of those tires but that probably works for Kyle's speed, bikes, and wallet... $

The tyres on my bike are still the original 1970's tyres.
They don't make tyres like that anymore.
@@dreyn7780 bro you are so funny. Why are you doing this under so many comments
I’m 5’4 and just got a 2002 300 exc for my first bike, I’ve been riding quads for a while, do you think it will be to big for me? I’m still growing by the way
I'm 5'6 with a 29" inseam. I just barely make it on my 200 and 300. I do run a low seat to help out some.
@@ponydown418 yea but the good thing is I’m hoping I will grow
@@zachjohnston8086 true true. I'm done growing so game over for me. Lol. How old are you?
@@ponydown418 I’m about to be 15
@@zachjohnston8086 yep. Still some more time to go. Have fun!
I need a dual sport, tire front and back
I use the Pirelli MT 21 rally cross. They work well in all conditions.
5:25 hard tu plug? How is that ?🙂 I thought you use inner tube. Do you use tubeliss system?
tubliss is obvious in several points of the vid - see @1:05
hi mate you should review the motoz tires
Try the kenda IBEX
Why are you using 110s and not something bigger like 140s
Kyle, you may have reviewed them but I missed it, how do you feel about the tusk hybrid tire? I have loved them so far
Hey thanks Luke but my name isn't Kyle.
Hybrid smylbride.
They're a bit like a chocolate cake.
Too much chocolate, not enough chocolate.
Why you not loyal to a brand?
Dunlop gets 6 GRAND a tyre. Do you realize how much income that gives them?
They don't have to make a dirt bike tyre at all.
@@dreyn7780 I don't understand a word of this but I love it.
What you think about the Shinko cheaters ?
Have you tryed x-grip tyres from Austria?
How about mangos?
Wonderful channel…….. you can learn so much on here…….
I knew more when I was 16.
The m59 is by far my favorite front tire. I did two rides on a shinko 546 and hated it. Ordered the m59 and have been very happy with it. I doubt I’ll try another front as long as they make the m59.
Does it enhance wheelspin in corners?
@@dreyn7780 it’s the front tire, so i guess the only effect it has on wheel spin is, i can come out of corners pretty hard with out feel like the front is going to push or wash out on me.
@@CrashHardEnduro you have a legitimate problem with the bike’s performance.
But it’s caused by single wheel drive.
You need an all wheel drive bike.
@@dreyn7780 yeah I think we got our wires crossed.
The m59 is the front and it never spins on me.
It grips amazing and i haven’t had a problem with it feeling like it’s going to wash out on me. It’s very planted and confidence inspiring.
Idk i always go with a tire that has a decent price for how much meat and hardness and meh it works
Hey let's see that new gummy tire you mentioned!
Keen to see that kawa in action
LEGEND!!
Really scraping the bottom of the barrel in our new era of confusion huh.
Your get the ktm125xc hope you are ready to have no bottom end
Have you ran the mitas 754 double green ?
Mitas 754 is only one green, double green is the 454 model
Thanks for sharing!🍻
M59 FTW 4 LYFE
Every bike is different every Rider is different because I don't like either of those tires but that probably works for Kyle's speed, bikes, and wallet... $
If I buy stuff off of Rocky Mountain through your link does it count as an entree?
bummer, they dont offer this in a 19in.
Ride that kx 250X aready
Will the front tire fit on a ktm 200 XC-W 🤨
Yes ma’am
No fair I can’t win a bike I live in Australia boo love your channel tho m8 👍
... Have u ever tried the Sedona MX907HP rear tire?? I run it on my 2018 YZ250 2t
How does it go over banana peals?
Still not as good as the motoz arena hybrid gummy
