Tyre reviews Maxxis AT-771 Bravo. Page 2 707

Excellent tires for city driving and hunting trips, as well as moderate off-road adventures.

I thought for a long time about whether to get AT or not, there are many conflicting reviews. In the summer, I drove on Dunlop ST30, and I decided to switch to Maxxis 771. I will describe my feelings: the car did not become wobbly, it just became softer, and bumps and potholes on the asphalt almost disappeared, even if you drive onto the shoulder at 70 km/h, nothing changes. The handling was not much affected, but if you enter a sharp turn well and exit on the gas, the unloaded front wheel skids. It handles puddles well. On a wet road, it stands confidently, there is no hydroplaning, and it confidently passes through puddles, although if you drive into a deep puddle, splashes fly onto the windshield.

There is no increase in noise, no howling or humming as people write. The fuel consumption is not yet clear.

Off-road, there is a huge plus in terms of passability - I drove to those places without any drama, where I didn't even think of going on ST30.

I think this is the ideal option for our roads, but for those who live in the center of Moscow and drive within the 3rd transport ring, without going off-road, there is no point.

A huge plus is the appearance, although I think the white lettering will fade quickly, I will touch it up, I really like it.

As for the size, it's not entirely clear, I think they are oversized - I took 235/65/R17, and at first, I wanted 245/65/R17, ordinary tires 245 fit and many RAV4 owners install them. But the Maxxis 235 is almost the same size as the calculated 245, the gap to the fenders is 11mm, and I think the 245 Maxxis would simply touch the fenders with a small turn.

Comparing it to the standard Yokohama Geolandar G91, I'll try to leave an honest review. I bought these tires deliberately, as I often drive on dirt roads, go mushroom picking, fishing, etc. I'll say right away that if you're 80% on asphalt, these tires aren't for you. Also, these tires aren't for racing, but for a comfortable ride at speeds up to 120 km/h. In comparison to the Yokohama, these

I've managed to drive about 500 km (dry asphalt, rain, black ice, and snowstorm with snowdrifts). The tire is good (when warm), it holds the road, doesn't drift in turns (it would be strange to expect anything else from tires of any price category, of course). It's barely audible. Due to the sudden onset of winter, I had a chance to try it on a frozen road. It handles snow perfectly, but on ice, it's like a cow, of course. On a frozen highway, it's slippery and unmanageable. But that's all, generally speaking, it's expected. Overall, I'm satisfied with the wheels, I was worried that it would be worse than the 15th Geolander, but no, so far the feeling is the same.

I will update my review after selling the car. Total mileage on the tires is over 50,000km. Wear is not significant (at least, not visible to the naked eye) - much less than 50%. Regular fishing trips - sand, gravel, dirt roads, handles perfectly. In turns at high speed (quite a big turn) whistles and tries to pull to the outer radius, but the tire is not meant for this. Never drove on snow and ice (have a mouse

225/60/17 - mileage 40% on gravel-dirt roads - so far so good, on the highway up to 170km/h it holds the road confidently, noise level - within normal limits, in my understanding. Aquaplaning can be said to be absent, even at speeds under 100 on good puddles, in turns at speed without squealing and skidding, to be honest, I didn't expect this from AT tires, especially since the native size is 225/55. There is something to compare with: by feeling on dry asphalt, like Toyo Proxces T1R. It doesn't grip in mud, but I think that if there is a need, it will definitely show itself much better than any highway tire. The golden mean for a crossover with four-wheel drive - essentially a direct competitor to Bridg 001, the only thing that the cost now, of course, does not please.

I spent a lot of time and effort researching reviews about these tires before making a purchase, and I must say I'm 100% satisfied with them. As a daily tire for off-road driving, they are an excellent choice. The tire is soft and quiet on the road, but when entering a puddle, the water splashes up to the roof. Any forests, fields, hunting, or fishing trips – I didn't get stuck anywhere. My friends who were on tractors were amazed at

Excellent tires for this price. Grippy, soft, comfortable and fuel-efficient tires. Holds the road perfectly in both dry and rainy conditions, doesn't smear on off-road - good self-cleaning. Exploited to the first snow and frost, stayed very satisfied with the tire. Behaved perfectly on snow and ice, everything is predictable and adequate. Honestly, didn't even want to change, but family insisted. As for the noise, I can say that for AT tyres, it's quiet

Quiet tires, soft, hold the road well, behave well in shallow mud. Compared to Bridgestone Dueler, they are simply excellent.

I bought them for everyday highway driving with trips to the country house. On the highway, it behaves confidently, compared to highway tires, the noise has increased insignificantly, the handling is excellent. On clay off-road, it copes quite well, except for spring mud, everything passes, if there is water in the ditch, it is washed out, if you start to skid, it "gets clogged" quickly, which sharply reduces passability. In general, I'm satisfied with the purchase.

I've driven almost 20,000 miles on these tires and I'm still thrilled with the purchase. I travel a lot on off-road and have long highway trips. I've driven around the entire Kola Peninsula and Karelia. On mud, if you push it, it's good; on rocks, it's excellent; on sand, it's like any tire can get stuck; on asphalt, there are nuances. In snow, it's worse than good winter tires, like Gislaved; on ice, it's not good at all - if there's black ice on the road, you'll be stressed at 30 km/h, but on Gislaved I drove 60 km/h in such conditions without worrying, plus you can only drift on an open area. However, I've driven through the winter and I'm satisfied, it's enough for city driving in winter. If you drive mainly on highways in winter, it's a strict no! As for noise, it's even decreased compared to ST tires. In rain and puddles, it's a dream, you drive and it's all the same, a wall of splashes, but it holds the road like a locomotive on rails. The size is big and fat, it gives the car a muscular look, the white lettering has faded in some places, but the look is very cool, I notice that drivers look at the wheels in traffic. It makes the car noticeably softer, but it doesn't lose handling, during sharp acceleration on asphalt, there are short wheel spins, during sharp braking, there are skids, it's unpleasant to drive over 16 km/h, although before that on ST tires, which came with the car, I could easily maneuver on the highway at 19 km/h, 14 km/h is the real ceiling. In general, as an all-season tire with a focus on summer off-road travel, it's more than suitable. Now I'm looking at AT-811 RAZR, because traveling to remote areas is my everything, and 120 km/h on the highway is enough for me.
