Looking at the D606 and or the Kenda 270. Talking rear tire only at
this point. Keeping the stocker up front for a few more miles. Got a
screw in the rear that went through the sidewall... Thanks
Rick
anyone selling set of lowering links?

I put the D606 on both front and back this fall, they work great. Just
remember they are not the 80/20 street tire you had before. They do have
limits on the road and can vibrate at speed.

I also enjoyed the 858 Cheng Shins, a fabulous tire for street and
dirt.
Way more quiet than the 606, with tapered knobs for loosin mud and
swallowin the rocks and firewood.

Course for 80/20, you may want to limit yourself to the stock tires.

For 80 street /20 dirt I woudllook at the Avon Gripster. Unless your 20 is
hardcore. I woudl rather take it easy on a full on dirt tire while riding
street than be stuck in the woods while running a street tire.
