msr itp holeshots are the best all around tires.. also good for holeshots but .. they go fast... and the razors last longer.. make sure you go with a 2 ply for racing .. i have a set of new holeshots for races only. maxxis a chep and good ..
Razr2 fronts/Razr rear is what I run, and wouldn't have it any other way. Don't bother with the 2-ply, or 4-ply even. 6-ply is the only way to go, if you don't have tireballs.

As Scro said, Razr2 fronts and standard razr rears in a six ply. The weight is worth the trade off in puncture resisitance. You only want a 2ply tire for the mx track. 4-ply is better, but for the difference in weight its worth it to run the 6ply tire.
I've had Kenda's and they're a decent inexpensive tire, but they're not near the quality of the Maxxis tires.

I've weighed both sets of tires when they were new. The 4-ply were .2 pounds lighter than the 6-ply. It's not enough to tell a difference when you are holding one in each hand, much less when they are mounted up and riding on them.

I should have made myself a little clearer. lol The 4ply is better than the 2ply for puncture resistance, but the 6ply is the best. Unless your running strickly mx I'd only run 6ply tires.
i am going razr2 front, razr back...6 plys....i dont run on the track enough to get straight mx tires...
thanks guys.
