I swear by Michelin rears, but looking to change up the front. What are you running?

Dunlop. MX33F. Going to try MX33R/MX53F, this combo has had some good reviews.

I've heard STI fronts, with a new design and compound are very good. A low price point makes it good those of us that ride on the cheap..

That's what's on my Alta. Wears good and very predictable for me and my speed(or lack of speed).
Had a couple fast local guys say they liked them too.

Easy. Pirelli MX32 Mid Soft is by far the best performing front tire that i have tested.

I’ll probably be alone in this but I really like the Bridgestone X20!

What is everyone running for an all around front? We can anywhere from deep sand to mild hardpack every weekend.

I just put this combo on my bike. I like the rear but the front will take some time. So far it's getting better at 8 psi. They are a 4 ply sidewall so they take a lot lower pressure to work right. A friend is running 6 but he weighs a lot less and is on an SX250. The grip seems good in intermediate soil but you can feel it start slipping the drier it gets. That's so far.

Michelin front, even when they “go away” they don’t totally “go away”.
Must be the compound.

I wish I could go back in time. I think it was a Dunlop K139. Anybody remember these?

Capmoto, I think there is a new front that is on its way to the dealers soon.
