Which MTB Front Tire Impressed Us? | Vital MTB Roundup

yeah no dude I hear you I hear you but I think it Max's ass guys is still the best tire ever we can we can talk about this more later I think it's mountain bikers one of our favorite topics to debate is Tire Choice tires are one of the few components on a bike that can be optimized to fit specific conditions or terrain and they are a wearable item requiring Riders to periodically survey the tire landscape and with the inevitable search for new fresh Rubber and all of our futures most of us have pretty strong opinions about which brand compound or model is superior but what we found is the majority of the time when we talk about how a tire performs referring to how it feels when mounted on our front tire of course rear tire performance is important and the combination of your front and rear tire will create a unique on-trail characteristic but there is no denying that how your front tire responds to the trail dictates how fast or hard you can comfortably ride your bike so with a bunch of Brands releasing new tires in the last few years we figured what better way to test some new models and get people talking than with their front tire comparison tests so today we have eight tires we're going to compare how they perform when mounted up front for this test we are focusing on tires aimed at all mountain or Enduro riding that are designed to Excel and dry loose over hard packed and Rocky terrain we approached each brand detailing our testing conditions and the type of bikes we are riding and let them provide the tire model they feel best suited our needs to test how each tire performs we are going to focus on three performance factors cornering traction with a focus on predictability and side knob support tread performance with the focus on consistency and overall grip and sidewall support focusing on Tire flex and high energy situations and tire deflection each tire will receive a score out of 10 for how it performs in each section plus an average overall score we are also using control Wheels a set of Crank Brothers synthesis e29 Carbon wheels as well as the same tire pressure the same amount of born seal sealant and the control rear tire a Maxis dhr-2 to help put each tire through its paces and gain a well-rounded impression of each I've got fellow vital editors Johnny Simonetti and Tanner Stevens here to join in on the fun you told me that they were good and I'm still Tanner Stevens here um yeah big fan of the High Roller too uh your favorite front tire yeah highly debated topic here no the High Roller too sick it's a it's got a nice drift a little drift Zone on it and then you uh you lean it in and it just hooks so what do you look for in a good front tire uh traction on the side knobs when you're leaned over dude I feel like someone else should describe my riding Style because I'm gonna say I'm gonna say your riding styles barely loose like you're in control but your body you have a lot of body English like you're pretty loose over there and you're you but you're you're like neutral forward yeah I'd say that's right yeah uh writing style looks like I'm gonna crash a lot honestly I'm excited to ride the WTV the veggie um yeah dude team norcal's been hyping it up so we're gonna have to check out the vigi I don't know how she's gonna run in the SoCal conditions here go-to tire pressure is we're about 25 26 front and around 27 28 rear Johnny what's your favorite front tire ever probably Max's asset guy that's the truth uh kind of like the transition knobs I like it to not just like fall to the side and I would like it to have like traction all the way through the like radius of it probably the uh Pirelli like I don't know that's just race car yeah just F1 see if we can get some F1 speed in the turns out there uh barely no I don't know it goes one more I don't know I think it's pretty smooth like I try to avoid a lot of stuff and kind of ride more over the front of the bike just because I'm taller I kind of like Tower over it except for front or rear both give me about 40. did you just say 40. probably 29. is that what it's gonna be today in the rear 27 in the front I would say a Schwalbe magic Mary because when I raced downhill bikes that tire was good on just about everything so I'd have to buy a whole lot of tires what makes a good front tire kind of same as Johnny I like when there's consistency as you lean over so those transition knobs a lot of tires have nowadays is pretty key and yeah just uh I don't like when tires roll when you really put energy and lean into them I like the sidewall to to hold up to some Force man honestly they're all pretty sick I think probably the V just because it seems like the one that I might be like the most hesitant to try or I know like the least about which makes me excited to see how it's gonna perform writing sound one sentence a sleep at the wheel hanging off the back I'm very rearward I'm like the opposite of Johnny even though I'm tall I just stand upright and let the bike dudes thing 25 front 27 rear which is why I've been running for like five years now all right so this massive rain [Applause] don't do that you might be wondering what makes a good front tire and what were we looking for when analyzing each performance Factor we Define cornering traction As A tire's ability to bite into the ground and provide predictable traction at various lean angles being able to trust your front tire to hold the line through a turn or anticipate when it will no longer provide traction can greatly affect how confidently you can push your bike the section of Trail used to test cornering traction featured various types of Corners including tight and steep firms long flat turns and tricky Bank burns the mix of turns highlighted how each tire responded to different amounts of Rider input and how well the side knob design and compound conform to the loose hard packed terrain for tread performance we focused on how well each tire gripped the ground and responded to typical Trail features such as braking bumps loose rocks awkward corners and off cambers a well-performing front tire should make it easy to control your front wheel and maintain a line we looked at each Tire's rubber compound knob shape siping and knob spacing as they all play a factor in dictating how attire molds and responds to the ground the section used for testing offered a variety of unsupported Corners Square Edge bumps harsh impacts and aggressive braking sidewall support comes down to the casing construction of a tire a good front tire should be able to navigate a rock garden without deflecting or transferring too much force into your hands while remaining puncture resistant with adequate Rim protection we set out to see how each tire responded in high energy situations such as rock impacts or pumping through steep berms all tires tested use gravity Focus multi-layer casings and many featured some type of sidewall or bead insert for added support and protection alrighty kicking things off with our impressions of continental's cryptital fr the cryptital FR is continental's only front specific model designed to excel in mixed terrain by balancing stability grip cornering support and rolling resistance the tread design features medium depth blocked knobs spaced tightly together slightly ramped Center knobs and closed siping throughout Continental offers the cryptital FR in three casing and three compound options we tested the burliest DH casing in stickiest super soft compound in a 2.4 inch width the DH casing uses four carcass layers on the sidewall six under the tread and an apex layer for added pinch flat protection while this is a lot of layers compared to the other tires Continental uses thinner 110 TPI fabric to maintain a low overall weight lastly the Supersoft compound uses a harder base compound for each knob with an ultra grippy rubber on top with the fastly growing popularity of Continental Tires we were all eager to see if the cryptital would live up to the hype for the Continental cryptol I scored it a 7.7 overall and I did that because it kind of made me I didn't have to think about riding when I was riding that tire the casing was really strong it was a downhill casing so it had a really solid feel but it also had a heavy feel while riding and I think that kind of heavier feel and that casing LED it to want to stray off Trail if you weren't giving a lot of Rider input so the Continental cryptotal FR for me was probably the stiffest tire out of the test which makes sense because it uses a downhill casing but that stiffness didn't mean that it deflected too much or for me it wasn't like an uncomfortable Tire to ride I struggled the most with that tire to get it to hold a line through corners it seemed like once I got it on the side knobs it took a lot of energy and force to engage those knobs into the ground gave it a 7.8 because overall the tread pattern seemed like it was super solid it had consistent grip everywhere it was just that forced me to ride at a hard aggressive mentality to engage the tire and keep it on edge in turns for the Continental crypto tall I scored it at 8.1 for the cornering performance I thought it did the best in the flat turns for tread performance I thought it felt really consistent but for sidewall support is maybe a bit much for our trail bikes and kind of gave a lot of feedback in the hands next up michelin's wild am2 is an aggressive all-mountain Enduro tire for mix to soft terrain the tread design features tall blocked knobs staggered side lugs that point Inward and minimal siping throughout the goal of this layout was to reduce rolling resistance while maintaining cornering grip and support the wild am2 is available in four casings and six compound options we tested michelin's second most durable gravity Shield casing with the gum X compound and a 2.4 inch width the gravity Shield casing is aimed at Enduro riding and uses three 60 TPI and 333 TPI casing layers the gum X compound lands in the middle of michelin's compound options and offers a mix of rolling efficiency and grip sporting some tall and deep side knobs that scream to be ridden hard anticipation was high to see what the wild would offer next up was the Michelin wild am2 and I gave it a 8.3 for cornering performance I felt like the firmer knobs benefited me having a more forward riding position on the bike for tread performance I thought it was pretty consistent and I liked it a lot in the Rocks where it felt like it held a line really well I didn't notice any pushing or tucking the wheel in the flat turns either so yeah the Michelin wild am2 scored a 7.3 I had good cornering traction had a sharp side knob which I tend to like is kind of like more flatter tread pattern not as radial it had a strong casing that was the biggest thing that I noticed from it strong casing sharp side knobs and it kind of held traction really well when you pushed into the trail and you gave it a lot of Rider input it wanted to be pushed this tire it wasn't really like you couldn't be hesitant with your cornering you like had to really dig in oh I gave the Michelin wild aim to a 7.2 which was the lowest score out of the group for me and that was mainly due to the large knobs and like the block shape of them it felt like they weren't quite engaging the loose over hard pack terrain that we tested on overall the tire offered enough grip and traction to still ride and have fun on but I think it needs some looser deeper soil to really Excel the sidewall support I thought was really good on that tire in the rocks and stuff it held up great it never deflected off a line it was easy to ride hard and aggressive and trust that it was going to go where I wanted well it wouldn't be much of a front tire test without including Greg Menard's signature Max's asgai featuring one of the most popular and copied tread designs in recent years the tire pulls aspects from multiple Maxis models to offer Riders exceptional grip and support across the entire Tire profile the center knobs are heavily rammed and fairly shallow to increase rolling speed a prominent transition knob adds support and feel when leaning over and the side lugs are deep and squared off to increase cornering bite we tested the Enduro Focus Double Down casing and stickiest lowest rebounding 3C Max grip compound in a 2.4 inch width Double Down uses two lightweight 120 TPI layers combined with a butyl sidewall insert making it lighter and more compliant than the DH casing maxis's 3C Max grip compound combines three rubber compounds in key areas an Ultra Soft rubber at the top of the knobs a medium rubber in the core and hard compound at the base of the tread the asgai arguably sets The Benchmark for front tire performance and I think we were all excited to compare its per performance against the rest of the tires in the group next up was the Maxis acid guy which I picked as my favorite front tire before we started the test it scored at eight for me on what we rode the cornering performance the knobs are super grippy um through compressions it kind of felt them wiggle a bit and overall tread performance was really consistent I felt like having a more radial design it was pretty easy to feel traction kind of everywhere yeah well I had a lot of traction it was kind of hard to hold on to through yeah the variety of stuff we tested the Maxis ask eye was a very homey feeling Tire I think we all kind of know that tire the most it comes on a lot of bikes kind of overall with like the tread performance it scored the highest in that category for me and I scored it as seven a solid seven it was a just kind of good everywhere but it wasn't great it was more of a radial design you kind of have consistency throughout the tread and then it wanted to kind of make you push a little bit more but then when you push you kind of lost that feeling of where the edge was and that for me I wasn't really that confident in I didn't like how I didn't know where the traction was going to break the casing on this tire it was a double down but it felt like it was softer than all of the other tires in the test especially riding through the rocks through the rocks it felt like it wasn't rebounding as much and it was almost packing and it kind of felt like it was slowing down through the Rocks which was a strange sensation coming off of some of the other tires Max's ass guy which I would argue is probably the Benchmark for front tires these days scored well for me I gave it an eight and to me that was the most user-friendly Tire it was really familiar it was easy to get on and respond it responded predictable it also felt like the double down casing we rode was a little bit more compliant than most the other tires I didn't really have any issues with it not holding up in like really compressing into berms or feeling like it was too soft in the Rock Garden we tested on but it also made the tire made the tire really comfortable it also made it feel a little bit dead like it was just kind of always glued to the ground which was great in a lot of situations and then sometimes it just kind of felt like it's maybe lacking the responsiveness that some of the other tires provided I think overall as most Riders know that's a super solid tire for kind of any sort of terrain you're going to be riding maybe not mud riding but it's obviously not what we tested in yesterday up next wtb's vigilante the Vigilante is wtb's Premier aggressive Tire the tread pattern features Square lug center knob space relatively far apart with minimal ramp all knobs are deep to dig into loose soil and the side knobs are staggered to offer consistent cornering traction the side knobs also have enclosed Sipes to improve durability and cornering support while remaining flexible to conform to the ground the Vigilante is available in two casings and three compound options we tested the most protective tough casing and soft as high grip compound in a 2.4 inch width the casing uses two B2B layers to offer optimal sidewall support and puncture protection the high grip compound offers soft yet supportive knobs that rebound slowly to provide Maximum Traction all vigilante models use wtb's tri-tech compound construction that places three rubber compounds in specific areas of the tire similar to maxis's 3C compound Tritech places the highest durometer rubber at the foundation of the knob to provide support a medium durometer makes up the middle of the knobs or durability and finally the softest compound is used on the surface of the side knobs retraction with its deep lugs that looked better suited for loose soil or mud we were all wondering how the Vigilante would feel once we place its knobs on our dry loose Terrain so I gave the Vigilante a 8.25 because that tire to me kind of mirrors the schwali magic Mary Which is higher I've liked so much in the past and it just offered a ton of grip and kind of all the conditions we rode in I didn't I think looking at it and looking at how tall the knobs are and kind of blocked they are in shape I was concerned they might not engage with the ground as much or maybe have a tendency to skate on top but I always felt like I was riding in the tread design the tread design doesn't have like a super defined transition knob but I never noticed there being any inconsistencies or vague feeling like leaning over in corners once I was leaned on the side knobs it felt like they had a lot of give but didn't roll as much as maybe the side knobs on the magic Mary they were firming up to hold up but you know I had enough siping and replyable enough to really find grip in those looser turns then we had the WTB vigilante which I scored a 7-3 for cornering performance it did surprisingly well for the terrain we were riding where I feel like it's not really what it's made for but uh I felt like the knobs were pretty firm but because they were so spaced out they kind of wiggled a bit over very terrain and for sidewall support it was Supple enough to kind of hold on to but had enough to where it didn't feel like the casing was wiggling a lot but it felt like the maybe the knobs were just because yeah they were so separated the WTV vigilante um kind of was interested in trying this tire from the beginning I'd never ridden them seen people ride and it's kind of been around for a long time and I scored it as a 5.3 overall mainly because in the cornering section it wasn't it kind of didn't perform how I was hoping so the side knobs they seem to roll a little bit and it made me like push in the flat turns and I was kind of scared a little bit with that tire it has a big gap between the knobs like a lot of spacing on the knobs and I think that's good and bad I'd like to try it on something more like Santa cruzder steep trails but for our test we were kind of dry loose over hard and I don't think it was the right conditions for this tire the casing felt good on it it was didn't really do anything out of the ordinary it felt like it wanted to hold a line but it was a little timid over rocks I didn't really have the best traction on like flat surface rocks it did surprise me where the tread seemed to flatten out more on the trail than it I was expecting I was kind of expecting to sit on those Center knobs and have this like scady feeling but that kind of surprised me there but the uh cornering I was hoping for a bit more up next the magic Mary has long been schwalbe's most popular gravity model that performs well in just about any condition it uses an open tread design with tall stud-like knobs that dig into topsoil the center knobs are squared off with minimal ramp and a transition knob is used every fourth row the shoulder knobs have double Sipes providing a high degree of flex and grip while cornering Schwalbe offers the magic marrying seven casings and five compound options we tested the trail or Enduro Focus super Trail casing that balances weight and durability it uses three carcass layers under the tread two on the side walls and a b to bead snakeskin fabric on the top there is also an apex layer for sidewall protection and a foldable Kevlar bead we paired the super Trail casing with the attic soft compound the second softest compound Schwalbe offers there's little info out there about how schwalby concox its compounds but the attic soft offers excellent grip with the Tad more longevity than their attics Ultra Soft a tire I know all too well from years racing downhill I was excited to see what Johnny Tanner would think of the magic Mary and how the tire would feel under a smaller travel bike Schwalbe magic Mary I've ridden this tire in the past and kind of always liked it scored a 7.7 is pretty high up there for me I think it was just consistent throughout it had good traction throughout the tread and I think maybe since I've ridden it a little bit more I knew I was familiar with it kind of knew where the edge of the traction was and just overall throughout the tread it was a good feel kind of homey a little comfortable feel you knew what it was going to do it wasn't gonna kind of like skirt out on you or fold knobs then we had the schwabi magic Mary which I scored a 7.8 I had never ridden this tire before but heard a lot about it and felt like for cornering it was really good had a lot of traction pretty much at any point of any point in the tread that you were leaning on sidewall support it wasn't the most but wasn't least either it was just kind of in the middle did surprisingly well for what we were riding also so I gave the magic Mary a 7.7 and that is my favorite front tire I've ridden over the years I also knew from growing up riding where we tested the tires that it's definitely not its strong seat the like loose over hard pack conditions and it offered a lot of grip and traction especially in like the kind of banked Corners where you're or long corners or flat Corners where you're really settling into a lean angle awesome grip and traction a lot of control it started to not like how that tire felt and more of the high energy burn Corners we were putting a lot of force through the front tire I think those side knobs are just too soft and there's too much siping on them it started to make the tire feel like it was rolling in those cases it was really the only tire that I I had that sensation of starting to kind of push the front wheel the super Trail casing also felt a little bit lighter to me it felt good in the Rock Garden that we tested on it had you know good damping a lot of compliance it didn't feel like it beat me up I didn't feel like I was blowing through the tire and running the risk of hitting my rim but I think in those you know hard packed berms the tire just didn't hold up to you know aggressive riding quite as well as the other tires moving on to pirelli's scorpion Enduro M Pirelli defines their models by terrain and then Duro m is designed for mixed terrain the tire features consistently spaced large knobs that grow in depth As you move outward the shoulder knobs are positioned in an alternating pattern and have a single deep Sipe and there is also a transition knob next to every other Center knob pair to lessen dead space in the tread the Scorpion is only offered in pirelli's smart grip gravity compound and Riders can choose between their hard wall or Pro wall casing smart grip is probably softest compound that's formulated to balance grip tear resistance and stability we tested the hard wall casing intended for trail and Enduro riding and features bead to beat Protection Plus an insert of hard rubber above the bee to prevent pitch Flats developed and proven over the past few seasons by top Racers we had high expectations for the Scorpion coming into the test the Pirelli scorpion scored a 6.7 this was an interesting Tire it was a bit different than everything else in the test the side knobs are offset which I was interested in trying I don't typically ride tires with a side knob that's offset it seemed it really was really good in the Rocks I wanted to grab it felt like it had a heavy feel it like wanted to like grab at the ground when you're on the side knobs it kind of had a wavering feel through corners that you're fully engaging the side knobs and I think it was because of the offset side knobs it wanted so you kind of wanted to like go like side to side a little bit to try and find traction but for me I I'm more of a side knob guy so which wasn't it I did the Scorpion a 7.7 mostly because it was a little underwhelming because I was really excited to ride the tire originally but it uh it kind of just performed well everywhere but didn't have any standout characteristic to me it offered really good Traction in flatter or longer Corners was easy to settle into a lean angle it felt like the knobs in the most part were providing good grip and traction the problem I had is that when I would really go to lean into a burn Corner the transition from the center knobs the shoulder knobs just felt a little inconsistent and vague it seemed like it took a lot of force and energy to get those larger shoulder knobs to engage with the ground and even though there is a transition knob sort of in there it just I never felt super comfortable pushing that tire like I did some of the other ones then we had the Pirelli scorpion which scored a 6.8 for me which this was the tire I was most excited ride and it's the only tire that kind of tucked in the flat turns up top um the offset of the side knobs kind of created an inconsistent feeling because they're quite spaced out burn Corners we rode it was it was great you could really lean into it um but on the flatter turns it was it was really hard to tell what it was going to do sidewall support was really good but the kind of inconsistency of the tread made it hard to hold a line up next the attack hpl is one of these latest gravity models standing for hard pack and loose the tires intended for mixed conditions the tread design uses ramped medium depth Center knobs evenly spaced apart with deeper shoulder knobs set in parallel closed siping is used throughout and alternating side knobs have an additional inset step to increase leaning traction the attack hpl comes in three compound encasing options we tested the mid-weight GXE core casing in gripia's full 40 compound in a 2.6 inch width the Enduro Focus casing uses a one and a half ply construction with an apex insert and chafer in the bead to save weight without diminishing protection derived from V's Motorsports division the full 40 compound uses an ultra tacky 40a rubber with excellent slow rebound characteristics the attack hpl was definitely the outlier in this test none of us had ever in V Tires before but we were stoked to spin some laps and form an opinion about one of their newest tires the V attack hpl this one I was interested in trying you know I've heard a lot of things about V Tires in the last year or two and it kind of you know it lived up to it it was it was a good Tire it scored well for me it scored at an eight which was pretty high for me and it had great cornering traction had a kind of a consistent feel throughout and I think it scored better than the ass guy it was very similar in tread pattern but scored better because of the casing the casing seemed to not fold as much and kind of held up a bit better in the Rocks but I did notice I didn't really like big hits it was really compliant on the smaller chatter and kind of had a good feel of her small chatter and wanted to hold traction but when you had a big hit it seemed to kind of fold with that big hit and then deflect a little bit so the V attack hpl was my favorite Tire to the test I gave it a 9.2 out of 10. and for me that was the tire that the second I got on it I felt immediately comfortable I think the standout characteristic of the attack that I liked was how well it locked into corners and just held an angle all the way through a turn it does have a more rounded Tire profile which generally I lean towards your more kind of squared off designs that have a distinct drop off and traction when you're leaning over for whatever reason on the attack I just felt comfortable the further I would lean on that tire it did you know at some point start to lose traction but it never felt surprising or inconsistent it was very predictable knowing how hard I could push that tire yeah overall I just think that's a tire that has a ton of grip in the knobs they're super pliable and can you know in the conditions we tested that it's pretty tough to find a tire that can grab onto loose over hard packed terrain it really excelled in that and then just the tread design itself never really seemed to have an end to the traction it could provide um and then kind of topping it off with a sidewall construction that uh you know held up to as hard as I could push the tire all right the V attack hpl scored an 8.6 this tire also has a pretty radial tread design and a lot of transition knobs between the center and Corner ones for cornering I had a supportive casing but the sod knobs are a bit soft for me so felt like it would sort of fade a little bit and squirm a little once you got it really on the side knobs um the tread performance though is really consistent I felt like it had traction everywhere and then for sidewall support it had a lot more support than the other radial tires we tested so I felt like that was super beneficial just maybe the cornering knobs themselves were a little soft for how stiff that was for me personally last but not least the Mazda is Victoria's mixed terrain Focus Enduro Tire it uses stepped Center knobs with deep siping in the direction of rotation to maximize rolling speed and traction the side knobs are staggered and utilize close and open siping to increase cornering predictability the inside of the shoulder knobs have more aggressive Sipes to allow for Flex while the outside of the knob uses less siping to provide support the Maza is available in two casings and one compound and we tested the stiffer Enduro casing with Victoria's 4C compound the Enduro casing uses two layers of 120 TPI nylon with an added bead insert for Pinch flat protection and as the name suggests the 4C compound uses four compounds throughout the tread the center and shoulder knobs are made of two graphing compounds each harder base compounds stabilize and resist folding while soft and sticky surface compounds increase grip another tire that none of us had ever in before this test the mods have proved to be a love hate tire for our crew I gave the Mazda a 7.8 and sort of similar to the Pirelli scorpion it was a tire in the group that performed well everywhere that we rode but it didn't stand out in the group as much as some of the other tires it offered great traction and you know the mixed Corners we wrote it in it had really good sidewall support and felt like I could you know really trust pushing it into harsh compressions through the rock iron we tested you know it performed well it wasn't a tire that seemed to really have a weakness overall I thought the Mazda performed you know well across the board but I think it would fare a lot better riding conditions that is a bit softer and deeper soil I'd love to ride the tire in those conditions and just I think I'd be able to really feel and maximize the bite that the tread design can provide then we had the Victoria Mazda which I scored an 8.8 on the cornering performance was really good you got really soft side knobs with a bit of a channel between the center tread and the side knobs which I'm normally not crazy about but the different rubber compounds kind of work well and it didn't have any crazy stand-up feature in the in the flat turns but in the berms it was really really supportive and felt like the harder you pushed it the more it rewarded you for tread performance it was really consistent just kind of felt like I knew what it was going to do at all times and never had any really weird experience and then for the sidewall support I felt like this tire had the best mixture of support to compliance to where it's really comfortable to ride but also you wouldn't blow through it in really hard compressions so this was the highest scoring tire that I rode Victoria Mazza this one uh scored the highest for me so we scored it at 8.7 you know I had the Victoria Vision I wasn't expecting it really didn't see it coming but the Victoria surprised me a lot it was exactly what I wanted from a tire almost exactly what I wanted from a tire on this condition's loose over hard and a little bit Rocky it has a nice Center knob and then a channel and then big side knobs but the side knobs have a lot of almost like siping in them where they're super compliant and they give you a lot of feel on those side knobs and you can kind of do whatever you want it uh one it made me made me feel like I could do whatever I want and it made me just confident in everything that I did on that tire it uh yeah it held a line through the rocks it breaked well it wasn't that radial tread pattern of you're going to have traction throughout the whole tire which some people like Jason uh yeah Jason wasn't seeing the vision on this one but uh we we had it over here so I don't know it was everything that I wanted out of the test The Vibes are high flies are flying the rocks are Rocky and we're testing sidewall support [Music] all right [Music] all right well there you have it eight front tires tested it's pretty awesome how many Quality Tires we have to choose from nowadays let us know in the comments which Tire you would pick and make sure it had to vital mtv.com to read our complete review cheers [Music]
