best tire for hardsurface

[ACracin300ex]

i know there are big debates over which tires are best for mx, cross country, and everyone says holeshots or razrs. I just want to know which tire would be the best for riding on paved/dirt roads. To get to the local trails and tracks i have to ride about 5 miles on paved road, so its about 10 miles on hardsurface when i want to go riding. I had turftamers in 18x9.5x8 and 18x11x8 and they held up okay for their price. Which is best on paved surfaces, but will still hook up on dirt? thanks guys. i need to know soon, bc i gotta order tires, mine got no tread :(

I think the kenda claws are supposed to be pretty good. Holeshots wont hold up so well on the pavement. But i would say kenda claws or razrs. Both are supposed to be great tires.

my Razor MX's have held up very well on paved roads, i would recommend Razors,,,

I used to have a set of bandits. They were a decient tire. They were a little on the heavy side, but pretty indestructable! They DID NOT do well in sandy conditions. Actually, they suck in the sand. But, i will tell you this. I ran them for over a year. Of that, about 1/4 of that was on paved roads. When the tires "left my posesion", they looked ALMOST new!!!!!!

Despite what other might say, they are a decient tire. I ran a couple of XC races, and i know the factory tires would not have made it. They hooked up decient everywhere EXCEPT sand! They will last FOREVER!!!

ill tell you this, if you ride on paved roads a lot then dont get holeshot mx's. i dont know about the other holeshots but mx's wear quick from pavement. (i only ride a mile down the road from my house to my friends track and they go quick.)

My friend has the bandits on his mojave for about a year, adn thye have yet to wear down noticably. We ride every weekend and he has to ride a mile of paved roads to ride. Holeshots wear out pretty quick on roads, Razr's last pretty well, and the trekkers I have on the back of my zilla seem to wear well on the road and trail.

Look throught the Rocky Mountain catalouge. They have really good prices on tires and tires pre-mounted on rims.
