Have to say that im not a big fan of the kendas. Dunlops are better, kendas wear out to quickly and dont feel right.

depends on which Kenda and what terrian you are on, we ran the kenda milville on med to hard terrain and it did not hold up, tore off the side knobs, we switched over to the kenda carlsbad and it has held up well. We are currently running the michelin starcross and they are holding up really well also.

You gotta select the correct compound and tread pattern. Common kenda combo is 'carlsbad' rear and 'millville' front. Millville is too soft for the rear unless your riding in loose dirt or loamy country without rocks. Rocks and hard packed ground will tear those knobs off.
