Most of us have experience the CST 858 tires as they are stock on most lifans and other china bikes.

These are okay. My stock rear made about 3400 miles and front about 5000. If you just put around they work well.

The duro are a vast improvement in ride and stability over the CST 858 on the road and at higher speed and I would have to say are equal to better in off-road ability too. The Duro's are directional. The best thing about the Duro's is the price. The CST tires are cheaper, but the little bit more for the Duro's is worth it.

I would use the duro's on a standard street bike for everyday use.
