Which is a better choice, directional tires or symmetrical tires?

I have been running 215x60Rx15 Stratus on the rear of my 21 RTL for a year, great results as I ride twisty Mt roads daily. I find no wear, that I can see anyway.

I have read a lot of negative stuff about stock tires. Frankly, it scares me. I have a 22 Sea to Sky with a little over 1000 mi on it. I am worried about going 75 mph down interstate with my wife on back pulling a trailer. I don't want to be worried about my tires. I heard good things about the Altima 215/60r15 on back and Quatrac on front. Now I hear Quatrac has 205 for back. Wondering which is better for back?

Have NO fear about those garbage Kenda's, they are at the minimum for use, but they shouldn't Fail..... If you can get better tires mounted in the future I highly recommend you do so ..... Just let the ones you have wear out then make the switch ..... Mike :thumbup:

Time does not ( normally ) wear out tires .....Mileage DOES .... PS, I've never heard of that Brand. ....good luck .... Mike :thumbup:

But it DOES AGE them out for sure! ;-) Ozone eats them up slowly but surely. I would replace full depth tires if they were 5yrs old or more.... But that's just me, I ask a LOT of my tires.....
