[@khang.flicks]

Wyatt Thomas it’s because you frame is made for 2.5 tires

[@Broke_Boyz_Garage]

It’s because your bike is different all bikes are tifferent

[@mbvjg4217]

what size frame tho?

[@itskane79]

The cult vans tires are good for me they don’t rub and I ride breaks and there super grippy for me so...

[@Jackc3105]

I ride Merritt option 2.35, they are very fast and grippy. For street they are very good, park they are very good, for dirt riding they are actually good for slick tyres, they do have grippy sections on the sides which help a lot, for metal ramps I found that they weren’t too good due to the slick middle section, and in the rain don’t try and ride, they are too slippy. Overall they are really good tyres and I’m happy with them. I previously rode BSD donnasqueaks and they were very good too! Good video as usual Alf.

[@jay999tv]

Do your run the same size for front and rear?

[@motov8-garage832]

I havnt rode now for like 14-15 years, these vids make me wana get another bmx. Back in the day we rocked alot of Primo & Maxxis tires. These Cult tires are nice thou👌

[@jesse-dg8yx]

With having to remove the air to take the back wheel off because of breaks, I know a way around it. I set my brakes up so the barrel adjuster is all the way out, that way I can loosen the brakes if the wheel moves or if I get a buckle, but loosen the brakes all the way on jsut the barrel adjuster and then you can unhook the brake arms from the wire or unhook the splitter wire from the cable straddle and the brakes are loose to take the wheel out. Oh also with the small chance you see this you said you'll give away the old tires. I live in the uk, I'm guessing that means I can't be part of it?

[@i.e.sergio]

No love for the Maxxis Grifters? They are super light, have good sidewall strength and a great bead, and have absurd grip. Having cut one up to dig around, I'm pretty damn confident with that over any other tire I've used on a BMX. I feel like I'm riding twice as fast on them and grip at much more acute angles comfortably on them than anything else I've ridden. Only thing I'm uncomfortable on are cold, wet, metal surfaces.

[@jjbmx314]

I just learned alot on tires which is hella helpful. Need new tires and was in need of knowledge. Thanks man!

[@aliff445]

You should try the maxxis grifters I have them they're really light and very grippy even in rainy weather but the sidewalls are abit to weak

[@depone6334]

i 2nd that, just got maxxis grifter tires the other week, got them in 1.85" and always ride them at 110psi for flatland, they grip better than 2.10" velo tires i had before.

[@MurdaCrumpet]

The only reason most bmx pros use a front 2.35 sized tyre and a 2.2 sized one at the back... Is simple... With a fatter tyre at the front it covers more space between the forks and wheel when it's blown up making it a smaller gap to foot jam and not kill ur toes compared to a thin at the front..

[@AlfredoMancuso]

A lot of street riders don’t really do foot jams, it’s mainly for aesthetics, and impact

[@brandonvinson6039]

Do frame sizes really matter ? Cause I’ve rode 20” tt an 21” tt an it never felt different, you should do a video on it

[@andrewspurlock7758]

Brandon Vinson it comes down to personal preference like I can’t 5 a longer back end on a 21 but if I’m on my preference a 20.75 with about a 13 back end it’s super easy idk what ur skill level is but if ur just beginning then it’s all gonna feel the same but as u advance u will figure out what sizes feel better and make things feel easier

[@brandonvinson6039]

Appreciate the help . Thought that on was just easier to pull up on an one was harder for people that loop out . But never felt it . Did seem like I could manual farther on the 21tt

[@dthundergunb3115]

I ride in the city so no ramps for me. I don't ride parks because there aren't any where I live so I got a set of Mission Tracker 2.4 balloon tires for when I'm jumping off anything tall like ledges and I don't slam my rims on the landing. My tired have the street squares and triangles pattern that are on most normal street tires, I haven't had gripping problems but I haven't tried a metal ramp either, I doubt they'd grip well on metal at all.

Any recommendations for tires that would be decent all around, for some concrete and asphalt, as well as a decent bit of dirt and plenty of gravel...? We live in a rural area, so when at home, the kid and I will be riding our new bikes on dirt and on a gravel driveway and gravel road... would it be best to find an all around tire for now, and later if he gets into street/freestyle kind of stuff, get him a second set of wheels and tires for when he is in town or at the little park we have here? Hoping for now the stock tires on our new bikes don't just immediately pop on gravel roads....
