  1. Talon X
I’m wondering if anyone has found the perfect tire to run on asphalt for the Talon? I have been running the Terrabites on beadlocks with pretty good results. No air leakage as some have reported. They also have lasted fairly well and are decent at higher speeds on asphalt. They say a round top tire handles better than a flat top tire. Has anyone ran any passenger car tires, such as a BFG TA radial? Maybe a Goodyear Eagle? My Terrabites are getting close to the replacement time, and looking for other options. I’m by no means disappointed in the Terrabites, but wondering if there’s something better?

Tensors are DOT rated at 8 ply. Priced on the high side but have a good, long term reputation. If you are going to drive on asphalt, make sure the tires are DOT rate. Some for Hondas are and some are not.
