What tyres does your S10 wear?

[Jiivee]

Heidenau K60 scout. I have driven about 7000 km now and I like them, but the front tire is very noisy on the paved road. I mostly drive on gravel roads and noise isn't a problem there, but I've been thinking of changing the front tire to a different brand? Rear tire continues K60 scout...

Maybe Mitas E07, E07+, (Dakar)? Or even Dunlop Trailmax Mission etc...?

I understand that even these tires are not completely silent on the paved road, but maybe quieter than the K60 front?

Any suggestions?

I can't say enough good things about the Motoz Tractionater GPS 50/50 tires. I'm on my second set this year and I'm pleased with both the on road and off road performance. They are especially effective on rough gravel roads if you lower your tire pressures. They also last a long time, 14,000 kilometers on the first set.

Motoz GPS front tire pattern looks almost identical to K60 Scout...

It seems to be available in Finland for 134€.
I'll consider it...

New Mitas E07+. I found this at a local dealer and it replaces the noisy k60 front tire. I hope the Mitas is less noisy on the paved road...we'll see?

Forgive me if i am wrong but that tire looks like its on backwards. Only because it does not look like the tread will cut into to surface.

Sorry, but now I don't understand what you mean?

The direction of the tyre tread will not bite into surface. If that was on the rear wheel it would be useless.

the picture of your front blue wheel, the tyre thats mounted to the wheel not your new mitas, is it mounted correctly as it looks like direction wise its mounted the wrong way

I would check the rear tyre aswell.

The pattern of the front tire must be exactly as they are in the picture.
