I just replaced a Kenda Kruz rear tire w/ a new one.
Got 7000 miles on the last one, I'm hard on tires so
that's a lot for me.
They work great in the wet, too.
Just thought I'd pass it on.

They must be pretty soft. That's about right for a soft tire made to grip well in the wet.

No, not soft. I got 7000 miles from a Metzler Marathon.
I'm just hard on tires, and these are nice and cheap.

that's great to hear, I've had my eye on the Kenda Kruz. How would you say the handling compares to the Marathon?

Handling is great, they handled the South Florida monsoon like a champ.
I think the grip is better than the Metz, because the Metz would
occasionally slide out a little under acceleration
if I was still leaned over a little.
I never had that prob w/ the Kruz.

thanks for the info Brian, that review really helps me a lot. I experiecenced the same sliding out when leaning with the Metzler too.

I definitely agree with Brian. I love these tires!
