History

Maxxis Tyres was launched into a world where automotive tyres were already being widely produced, typically by premium brands like Michelin and Pirelli where the emphasis was very much on performance reflected in price. However, the brand, founded in Taiwan, didn’t move into the automotive sector until a few years later. In fact, its production line focussed first on two-wheeler tyres with off-road and road tyres, as well as BMX and hybrid cycle tyres.

Maxxis Tyres was originally called the Cheng Shin Rubber Company before the name was changed. In the years since it was founded in 1967, Maxxis Tyres has become a popular original equipment supplier with connections across the vehicle market – including brands like Ford, Nissan, and Toyota, and bikes from Cannondale, Santa Cruz, and Yeti among other names.

Today, its collection is distributed across 180 countries with operations in Asia, Europe and North America, and tens of thousands of employees. Its tyres include passenger car tyres, 4x4 tyres and SUV tyres, competition tyres and motorsport tyres, and light truck and van tyres – built on a foundation of performance, value for money, and superior tyre technology.

Maxxis Tyre’s Position on the Tyre Market

Maxxis Tyres is a mid-range brand that offers value for money as well as quality and high-performance. Its tyres span different seasons, terrains, and vehicle types – with some of the most popular collections bridging reliability with quality handling.

With Maxxis producing tyres across Asia, Europe, and North America, with access to its own tyre test facilities and centres, advanced design and engineering sits at the heart of Maxxis. And it doesn’t end there, with Maxxis also committed to sustainability and research into both the materials used and the impact of tyre tread on various road surfaces.

With Maxxis boasting such a varied range of original equipment suppliers, across its car tyre and bicycle tyre market, motorcycle market, and high-performance events like MXGP 2022 and EnduroGP 2022, continued tyre technology is key to its market position. Some of the leading tyre technology used by the brand includes 3D Sipe technology for premium grip and traction in different conditions, Silica-based compounds for flexibility and comfort, and eXo Protection which is Maxxis’ answer to strong and adaptable mountain bike sidewalls.

These various technologies contribute towards Maxxis Tyres’ reputation for high levels of safety as well as performance.

Popular Maxxis Models and Collections

Browsing the Maxxis tyres collection covers a variety of vehicle types, from two-wheelers to passenger cars and racing vehicles. For road and mountain cyclists, one of the biggest factors to consider is tread design – with Maxxis designing and creating a range of daily tyres as well as the specialists Severe and Wetscream models for challenging conditions.

Some popular bike tyres, originally the bread and butter of the Maxxis range, include the Maxxis Assegai tyres for mountain biking, the Maxxis High Roller ii for dry conditions, and the Maxxis Forekaster hybrid trail tyre. The Maxxis Maxx Terra is another bike tyre that brings versatility and optimum downhill control, safely taking cyclists from off-road tracks to smooth tarmac roads.

Drivers, on the other hand, look to Maxxis’ integrated tyre technology and its impact on both tread design and stability, and performance, both within its all terrain models and more specific models. Top rated tyres include the Maxxis Bighorn MT-762 and the Maxxis Creeper Crawler M-8090 tyre for a versatile collection of vehicles.

The Maxxis Bravo Series AT-771 is another notable collection, brought to life to optimise the handling and driving experience across light trucks, while the aforementioned Bighorn MT-762 is specifically engineered for muddy terrain and surfaces.

Browsing the Maxxis Tyres Collection by Season
With so many different tyre types available, one of the quickest ways to filter models and collections is to consider the season you are buying for. Many UK drivers value the versatility and convenience of all-season tyres and their suitability across the UK climate. However, season-specific tyres are popular for their added enhancements and benefits.

All-season tyres bridge stability on wet and muddy terrain with the ability to remain flexible in cold temperatures and adjust to the changing climate in summer. In the passenger car tyre range, the Maxxis Premitra All-Season AP3 is the leading model for unpredictable conditions, while the range of 4x4 and off-road tyres meet varied seasonal standards but with design attributes for different terrains.

The summer tyre collection effortlessly navigates wet and dry road conditions. Many of Maxxis Tyres’ competition tyres and high-speed performance tyres are engineered for summer driving, with a certain amount of traction on wet surfaces and a flexibility in the face of rising surface temperatures. Across the passenger car range, some of the top summer tyres include the Maxxis Victra Sport 5 VS5 with its high-performance build, the Maxxis Mecotra ME3 for everyday driving, and the Maxxis Victra RunFlat M36+ with its added run flat sidewall support and tyre structure.

Winter tyres are among the most specific on the market, uniquely designed and built to withstand cold temperatures and icy and snow across road surfaces. Winter tyres produced by Maxxis Tyres are most commonly found in the Extreme 4x4 tyre collection, with models like the Maxxis Arctic Trekker WP-05 and the Maxxis Wintermaxx WM2 both prolific and popular models with enhanced traction.

Choosing the Right Maxxis Tyres for Your Car

From bike tyres to car tyres, extreme 4x4 tyres, and ultra-high performance tyres for competition driving and track driving, Maxxis bridges performance with quality and value for money.

Though not a premium brand in terms of price, these tyres are versatile and durable and bring a high standard of testing and tyre technology to a global market. Drivers can browse the Maxxis collection directly or access our advice and expertise on tyre fitting, selection, and managing ongoing maintenance across tyre pressure, MOT checks, and more.
