Tires for rocky terrain

CJ Benenati · Jul 7, 2015

I've tried many different tires/combos, but always come back to Pirelli MT 16 rear and Bridgestone M59 front. They both wear well and do what they're suppose to - hook up! The areas I ride differ, but generally rocky, technical woods to some open areas. Just curious as to what others may be using.

Dunlop MX52 on the front, grips very well in a wide variety of conditions and hasn't shredded itself to pieces in mostly dry and dusty/loose rocky conditions. Might consider trying a different tyre when this one wears out, if only to experiment. But I know if I need a tyre in a pinch to depend on I'll pick it again.

IRC M5B on the rear, for a wet/mud/sand tire it is holding together EXCEEDINGLY well in the same conditions. Very long wearing and grips surprisingly well on anything dry and hard. Unbeatable grip when the ground gets a little soft, especially when wet. Wouldn't choose any other tyre over this one, its bloody fantastic.

These have been getting mixed reviews on other forums. Seems like a lot of people that used/tired these, went back to trials tires.

I agree with the 07 but like the 21 front. Mitas is working well for me in Canada.
