RE: Tires
In the states DOT certified tires are required, even for trail riding. Our NJ group ride was halted whena ranger checked all the bikes over for anything su****ious. Nate was sent back to the camp on his XR for non DOT tires.

Or better yet ..... how do they last on pavement. For a while I had a Pirellie super soft Front tire and it was awsome in the sand. Then one day when my truck broke I had to do a quick 90 mile trip on I-95 at 75 mph.........long story short that tire was done after that ride.

I too am leaning towards the AC-10.

RE: Tires
It sounds like the AC-10 is the best of all worlds.
[ul][*]Good asphalt tire life[*]Good asphalt traction for all road surfaces[*]Good off road traction too![/ul]Is the front tire a little skinner on these tires for a specific reason or, is it just that it isn't made in our size and width?

RE: Tires
It looks like the Michelin AC-10 is a great match for the rear tire. What sort of mileage would I get out of it on all asphalt riding?
What front tire would be a good match for it if I didn't want the skinny AC-10?
