Get the biggest one. C 760s are small for their size. Chengshin knows that people pay more $ for bigger tires so they put bigger numbers on the tire. FWIW I like the C755 for aggressive gravel-work, best gravel traction I've run. C760 is OK for mud and soft ground. Chengshins can be kinda hard to mount. Haven't had the nerve to run Chengshins, people tend to read the brandnames then chuckle, like schoolkids comparing sneakers. Tom =======================
