Maxxis RAZR HT780

Recently fitted Maxxis RAZR HT-780 to my 2014 Toyota Kluger Grande AWD as replacement for premium brand performance tyres that wore out at about 28,000 km. I attribute the quick wear to the soft rubber and the coarse bitumen roads where I live that are not well maintained and have lots of repair patches, uneven surfaces and potholes. The old tyres were great and were almost silent. The Maxxis are not as quiet but are not noisy either, however they have made the steering much lighter and more responsive with quicker turn in and better straight tracking on wet roads with puddles and sheeting water as well as on roads with patches and varying bitumen surfaces. They don't thump over bumps like the performance tyres did and the ride is noticeably improved. The Kluger is a heavy car and overall ride is now much better. I've only done 300 kms so far but my impression is that they are a step up from my previous tyres in all areas except noise. I'm an older driver and stick mainly to the bitumen.
