Hallo! How much is the real width (lug to lug) of the 2.30 DHF?
The ertro indicates 58mm.
I will certainly buy it if it is more on the 59mm width.
Just for reference, i have the 2.30 aggressor and it measures exactly 58mm lug to lug.
I also have the older DHF 2.50 supertacky, and it measures 60mm.
you can notice 1mm width on a tyre - impressive!
width will vary based on rim/pressure etc etc.
I am glad I checked this as I was searching for exact measurements for a 2.30 aggressor so thanks for that.
I can't give any info for a 2.30 DHF sorry.
maxterra or supertacky has better grip?
supertacky has better grip but rolls slower
The WT 2.50 will be ok in 23mm inner width rims?
I’ve got a 2.5 dhf wt on a 25mm internal width and thats ok - although that’s probably narrrower than the tyre is designed for. As a result my tyre profile is quite rounded - so probably more progressive in how it breaks away, but has less outright grip if you through it aggressively into a corner.
In terms of size it fits through my non boost Yari but it’s not got a huge amount of clearance through the brake arch.
Maxxis WT are designed for 30-35mm rims but I’ve got one going on my Hope DH rim and that’s 28mm internal.
WT is a no go for me.
The real question is, should i go for 2.50 supertacky exo or 2.30 maxterra exo TR?
The first is a bit heavier, probably with more grip-rolling resistance, and not tubeless ready. (i will install it in tubeless rims)
Is it wider than the 2.30?
the 2.5 supertacky, will be fine for tubeless installation in UST rims? (the tyre is not TR)
They are really small more like a 2.2, maybe 2.1
Even the 2.5 is smaller than 2.4 Michelin, Onza and Bontrager equivalents which are much closer to their claimed size.
27.5x2.3 Minion DHF 3c maxterra TR on a Hopetech Enduro rim measures 57.9mm or 2.279" HTH😀
27.5×2.3 Minion DHF 3c maxterra TR on a 25mm internal DT rim rim measures 57.8mm
