Currently running Maxxis High Roller 2s. Bought a Hutchinson DZO to try in the sticky stuff. But only one. Front or rear?

Grip when putting power down or grip when braking / cornering.

Both then. 😉

Although I think the front edges out over the rear, as avoiding trees is more useful than getting up a slope.

That was basically my thinking, but I know little about Tyres. Cheers

Steering and stopping every time for me.

i only run them on the rear - i used to run fr & rr but i found mudX 2.0 just too narrow for the front.

2.3 on front, 2.0 on rear gives plenty of mud clearance and enough grip.

Danny Hart did this with a mud tyre on the back and dry tyre up front.
