I am looking into getting new rubber. The grounds I ride are as follows:
1)Trails mainly gravely-hardpack 88%
2)mud, mainly muddy trails no real mud-holes 10%
3)soft root infested extreme hill climbs with lots of dead leaves making it slippery (if people saw these hills they would call us NUTS) 5%
4)rocky +- 2%
5)black top (between established trails) 5%
My problem is the tires I like are either expensive or not made! I like Terra Crosses but are only 26"ers. I would prefer 27s or 28s by 10 r12. I also really like Pitbull Growlers but they are really expensive! I guess I could settle for 26.5x9r12 and 26.5x11r12 (if I came into money I’d get these) I also like Blackwater Evo’s they come in 27s or 28s always a 12" rim cause I believe a tire is part of my suspension, although they too are expensive!!
If you can PLEASE suggest a tire (Been searching what seem like forever) bear in mind I have had Bighorns and Powergrips in the past, they wore well but I found once the square edges wore off the grips you lost ALOT of traction!! So no Bighorns for this guy!
