Best Bike Tires of 2025

"I purchased these tires to replace my worn mountain bike tires. They perform excellently on the street and hard-packed paths, and I love their nice center lug pattern. After riding a couple hundred miles, they are wearing well and look great!"

"I switched to these tires for my kid's school bike and found them to be smooth and comfortable. They were a bit stiff at first, but warming them in the sun helped. I definitely recommend them for anyone looking to upgrade!"

"I bought these tires and have already ridden over 80 kilometers with them. They still look brand new and offer great speed and grip. I wholeheartedly recommend them!"

"I've recently switched from Continental Grand Prix 5000 to Gatorskins on my Trek Madone. The 25c vs 23c tires only weigh 28 gms more per tire. The weight sacrifice for the 'road insurance' you get from the dura skin sidewall is well worth it. The tread compound is plenty sticky enough and should get comparable or better mileage. Expect 4K miles based on my experience. I'm sold on these as my new tire of choice."

"This is my 2nd pair. I cycle a lot and these have performed very well for me. They are a bit heavy, but the trade-off is a good heavy-duty wear layer that rolls nicely. I even use this tire on my trainer and switch back and forth between the streets and the trainer when the weather turns bad."

"I really love the product. It works just like any other tire and has the same feel when riding, just with more puncture protection. However, I believe the sizing chart should be simplified. Make sure to get the proper size."

"I bought these for my 29er mountain bike for occasional road use when knobby tires aren't practical. Changing tires can be a hassle, but these tires really save me from buying another bike. They roll smooth and fast on the road and fit my 29er rims perfectly. These tires aren't meant for serious off-road use, but they handle easy trails well. Great road and light trail tire at a bargain price!"

"I got these to replace the dry rotted tires on my Schwinn Trailway hybrid. The install was a bit tricky since the tires were shipped half-inverted in a box. After some shaping and using zip ties, I finally mounted them. They seem to be a good fit for my street riding style, and I hope they resist pinch flats!"

"I needed a 20-inch tire for an old bike for my grandkids. I bought two, and they went on easily. After some maintenance, I took it for a test ride. It felt like riding a brand new bike! I'm really pleased with these tires for general usage."

"As a long-distance road cyclist, I've used many tires, but I can confidently say that the Continental Grand Prix 5000s are the best I've encountered. They strike the ideal balance of durability, speed, and comfort. I've tackled rough terrain without a single flat, and I've noticed a significant boost in my average speed. Though they can be a bit challenging to mount, the smooth ride they provide is totally worth it. For anyone seeking a top-performing road bike tire, these are definitely the ones to get."

"I recently switched to the 28s after using the 25s for a year, and I must say, the 28s feel even faster and smoother on the road. It's amazing how much of a difference the right tires can make in your riding experience. These tires are simply fantastic!"

"I’ve been riding the Grand Prix 5000s for several years, as have many of my friends. They truly are great tires that deliver on comfort and speed. I would say they are a game changer for anyone looking to upgrade their bike. Just keep an eye on the price since it changes frequently!"

"I believe these are possibly the best mountain bike tires ever. After trying five different tires, I finally ordered these and found them to be a great value for money."

"I found these tires to be great for my kids' power wheels. With a few self-tapping screws, the tires provided excellent traction and helped them power up hills. They stored nicely and came flat, making installation a breeze. I'm planning to order more for the last machine!"

"These tires are solid and well-constructed with a ton of grip. They seem like they will last a long time and were shipped well. Overall, I'm very satisfied with this product!"

"I recently ordered a replacement bike tire for my road bike, and I was pleasantly surprised by the quick delivery and excellent packaging. The tire was the exact same size as my old one, and I found it very easy to install. After a few weeks of use, I can confidently say it provides a smooth and quiet ride with great grip on both wet and dry surfaces. I'm really happy with my purchase!"

"I received my tire a day early and was thrilled it fit perfectly on my 24-inch rim. The price was the best I found, and I appreciate how easy it was to put on. It rides smoothly in both dry and wet weather, making it a solid choice for my biking needs."

"I picked up these tires for my kids' bikes, and I must say, they are fantastic for the price. They perform well on various terrains, thanks to the continuous center tread and side knobbies. I’ve used similar tires on my own mountain bike and they’ve held up nicely, proving to be reliable for neighborhood rides and even some off-road adventures."

"I've been using these tires for several weeks now, and after trying WTBs and others, I’m really happy with my choice. I mainly ride to class and for workouts, so I needed something durable for rough roads. These tires offer fantastic handling and are much faster and smoother than the previous-generation Ultra Sports. I’m amazed at how little wear I’ve noticed so far."

"I think these tires are great. I haven’t encountered any issues with them, and they perform well so far."

"These tires are delivering exactly what I expected, and they come at a very competitive price."

"I chose this brand after reading reviews, and I was not disappointed. My ride feels so different - it’s like a damper was placed in the wheels, minimizing road vibrations. I plan to switch to this brand for my other bikes."

"Having used Ultra Sport tires for years, I recently tried the Ultra Sport III. I installed them on February 1st and rotated them after 1500 miles. The wear indicators showed expected results, with the rear showing about 2X more wear than the front. I anticipate getting over 3000 miles from them. The handling is very precise and quite smooth. I’ll definitely buy another set when these wear out!"

"I’d heard these tires are difficult to install, but I found the process to be very easy. I used tools to remove the old tires, but the new ones went on without any tools. They look great and I’m happy with my purchase!"

“I use these tires for my dog cart wheels, and they worked exceptionally well. The installation was pretty straightforward, and the thickness is impressive. Overall, they are very well-made.”

“When I updated my older mountain bike, I found these tires and tubes to be fairly easy to install and they look great. They perform adequately for most casual riders. However, I did have issues with the included levers; they broke easily. Thankfully, I had some extras. One tube got a flat shortly after installation, but the other is holding up. I recommend having a patch kit or quality backup tubes on hand.”

“I ordered these tires as replacements for my hybrid bike. They turned out to be high quality and very easy to replace. Overall, a great choice for my needs!”

"My son wore down his tires completely, and after showing him various tread patterns, he picked these because of the aggressive look. The installation went smoothly, and I recommend taking them out of the package first for better decompression. Since we put them on at the start of summer, he rides daily and the tire quality is impressive. He claims the bike rolls better now, but I think he's just excited about the new tires."

"I found these tires to be perfect for my son’s bike. The installation was a breeze and everything went smoothly!"

"I watched a few YouTube videos and decided to install this tire on my bike. It turned out to be better than the original and looks solid as well!"
