I need some new tyres for my Helius AC. Rims are Stan's Arch which currently have rimstrips in.

Looking at Maxxis High Roller 2.35 for the front, not sure yet for the back (advice welcomed) Should i get the standard or LUST versions?

Either they'll both work so whichever is cheapest

Ask Dipper when he's next ordering a frame (shouldn't be long now I reckon).

FWIW I got LUST HR's 2.35's on 355's (courtesy of advice from the above...)

UST tyres are more reliable, easier to inflate and squirm less then a standard tyre. I know where I would put my money, seen to many standard tyres fail.

Standard tyres are fine, especially if you have the rimstrips fitted.

You'll be able to do both in all probability, although without the rimstrip for non-tubeless maxxis, it could be a bit of a faff.

My non-tubeless folding high rollers wouldn't work. In fact, the only Maxxis folder that has worked for me on my Stans Flow's without rimstrips has been a 2.25 ADvantage.

Steel beaded ones seem to work much better though.
