I am in the market for a new ste of tires and am unsure on what to buy.
I have a TBlazer and most of my riding is on trails with some mud and some hills and every once in a while I'll go to the MX track..
I was wondering what kind of tires you guyz have on both front and back and what size,,Thanks for the help..

I went the holeshot direction. I bought holeshots front and rear, I dropped the tire size down from 22 in the rear and 23 up front to 20 and 21 which will get the wheels spinning a little faster which will help getting out of a turn on the mx track. I ride trails mostly and I haven't had a problem with them at all, even in the sloppy mud they hold up really well. You won't get the bite like some of the wooly boogers in the mud but you don't get that hard ride either. That was just my preference, I actually liked the performance of the stock titan tires too.

I put stock size Holeshot XCTs on my Sport. I could not get the fronts to hold air, (neither could four of my buddies that bought them), so I put stock size Razrs on the fronts. They work great for every application I've encountered. They work amazingly well in sloppy mud.

I went with the Holeshot XCT's on ITP .190 wheels. Perfect, and no problems or flats in 2 years. Good wearing tire, not that good in sand or deep sticky mud, but all trails, muddy trails, hills etc, they roost.

For the MX track you could look at the 19-6-10 up front and the 18-11-10 out back. Give you a chance at the holeshot, but rob our top end.

Holeshots are fine unless you are in sand or deep mud. I went with Bearclaws but Spider Tracs (ITP) and Super Swampers are also worth consideration.

I've heard alot of good things about the dirt devils. They look good work great and are really cheap at rocky mountain. Just another option to consider. Holeshots are good for trails and track. However they are not very good in mud. We have alot of thick clay mud around me and the holeshots clog up to quick.
As soon as I kill my 489's thats what I'm getting.
