    2020 F3Ltd, Rabbit (Sydney) sway bar.
    Third set of Kendas fitted yesterday, early because of a long three week ryde coming up.
    Mixed riding, vigorous 75%, local and freeway 25%.
    Fronts 17PSI and over 30k Km between changes.
    Rear 22-24 PSi with 20k km between changes.
    For two-up ryding the rear tyre is adjusted higher to Spyder manual specs.
    Very happy.

    Update: Following a few long overnighters and 6742km Black Dog ride my rear is now down to 20PSI with the fronts on 17PSI. Kendas are serving me well with grip and acceptable life, not less than shown above.

    Spyder: 2014 RTL
    Type of Riding: Mostly day rides up to 350 miles & running local errands. Not terribly aggressive.
    Suspension: RonBar, Laser Alignment
    Front Tires: Kenda OEM 165/55/15, set to 20 PSI
    Rear Tire: Yokohama Avid Envigor 205/65/15, set to 26 PSI
    Current Mileage: rear 9400 miles. Middle is done. Fronts still have some life left at 18K

    Comments: Changing front and rear at 18031 with Hankooks -- Kenergy S Touring on the rear -- Ventus V4 ES on the front.

    EDIT/extra comment: I figure the poor mileage on the Yokohama was due to the higher pressure I ran. The edges still looked new while the middle was worn to the bars. Going to run these Hankooks at a lower pressure to see what happens.

    Here are the Hankooks.

    Please, this thread is JUST for members to post up the details of what tires they are running & how successfully for all to see, preferably in the style/format shown in the first post of the thread/as used by Fjrwillie & CruisinTx above -

    NO OTHER DISCUSSION will be allowed to remain!

    We don't want to dilute the value of the thread as a detailed resource/list &/or let it degenerate into juuust another tire thread that's branching off into talking about tires & brands & treads & pressures, or whatever, it is JUST for members to post the details as outlined of WHAT they are using in the format shown! And no matter how hard it is to resist the temptation, ANY other discussion &/or recommendations should be taken elsewhere or conducted via PM! IT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE HERE!

    Thank You!

    Spyder: 2016 F3-T
    Type of Riding: Mostly solo, Touring and aggressive and/or spirited
    Suspension: Baha Ron sway bar, Elka front shocks, Laser Alignment
    Front Tires: Vredestein Quatrac 5 175/55 R15 - Set to 18psi
    Rear Tire: Yokohama Advan Fleva v701 205/55 R15 - Set to 28psi
    Current Mileage: 25,552 as of Saturday

    Comments: My OEM rear tire made it to about 12k miles and even though the fronts were fine, I changed them all out. After 13k miles on the setup listed above, the fronts are still in great shape and corner amazingly well. The Yokohama on the rear, however, did not have the traction I hoped and did not hold up well. I'm now on the hunt for a new rear tire.

    Default K20 tires

    I just put on a new K20 on my 2017 RTS. I will let all know next year as to how they hold up. So far the rear tire is exceptionally smooth and has great grip.

    VREDESTEIN QUATRAC 165/60/15 - 2015 RTS New today at 90,260

    Spyder: 2015 RT-S
    Type of Riding: Mostly touring. Aggressive at times
    Suspension: Stock, New Sway bar links at 86347
    Front Tires: 165/60/15 VREDESTEIN QUATRAC Set to 20 PSI 90,260
    Rear Tire: Riken RAPTOR HR 215/60R15 Rear Tire 81866 Set to 30PSI
    Current Mileage: 90,260

    The new front VREDESTEIN 's replaced Kanine tires that went 23,722. I probably could have gotten 1,000 - 1,500 more miles, but am going on a 3-day trip, somewhere in the neighborhood of 900 miles. Figured why tempt fate. While the Kanines seemed to handle ok, they were advertised as a replacement of the OEM tires which were to outlast the OEM's by a material margin, which they did not. The OEM's that were replaced had 22,818.

    Pictures attached of the Front Kanines.

    Whatever the stock tires that it came with from the factory.

    I've only put about 250 miles on it, and I'm a very conservative rider, so I'm sure I'll have them for awhile.
