+1 on the Nexen. Easiest tire change I've ever done and great ride/performance.

Got back home last Friday from Sturgis Motorcycle Rally on the bike. 970 miles in two days!!,and yesterday afternoon I was rotating tires on the car and checking tire pressures. I thought “why don’t I do all the vehicles as long as I have everything out?” So I crawled under the right saddlebag to check the rear tire and found the muffler hanging down. I had lost the rear mounting bolt and rubber isolator. So I dig around in my treasures and come up with a suitable replacement and voila!, she is up and running again!

We’re pulling out this morning to head down there.

I’m headed to the Vogel rally today, mountain twisties darkside annually. Turning isn’t an issue.

Additionally, I thought there was a little more counter steer when I first went dark but that feeling dissipated quickly. I 100% notice better stopping and better handling in wet weather. There was no difference in cornering traction. Tires have lasted 20 -30 K miles compared to 5 - 8 K with MC tires.

On the '06 I ran a Nexan. on the '18 I run a g-Force 2 205/55/16

Yep Nexen is what I use. Look under the forums tab and scroll down to darksiders.

I haven’t but know that some members have. Hopefully one of them will see this and help. I don’t know why but Nexxen comes to mind.
