The Maxxis MA-202 tires generally receive positive reviews for their performance, appearance, and value.

These tires are really all you could ask for at their price range - I'm only hesitant to give 5 stars because I'm sure there are some tires out there that are better in ways. But they're good on and off-road, in all seasons, and won't break the bank.

I was pleased with the service I got when I ordered my tires. The price was the best I could find and when I inspected them I was blown away by the overall structure and appearance. I will be ordering from Simple Tire again in the future.

Features & Benefits

All-season tread
Black sidewall
50,000 mile limited manufacturer tread life warranty
Solid center rib boosts handling and stability

Car drivers who want to get the most out of their tires prefer all-season touring tires as these tires are suitable for use in dry, wet, and light winter weather conditions, and the Maxxis MA-202 features an all-season tread pattern that boosts dry, wet, and light winter weather traction. While its robust center rib improves handling and stability, the jointless spiral wound nylon cap ply increases strength and durability. The computer-tuned tread pattern of the Maxxis MA-202 reduces road noises and vibrations to create a quiet and comfortable ride while six circumferential grooves remove water from the tread to reduce hydroplaning and improve wet weather handling. In addition, the Maxxis MA-202 features a double steel belted construction and a full casing reinforcement package that enhances durability.
