What kind of riding do you do? Maxxis Highrollers are very good, especially as they are cheaper than many alternatives. IMO, the best trail tyre out there is the Continental Rubber Queen.

I do trail riding

there's loads of good all round tyres, the ones I've recommended are good starts. Check thisout for a bargain.

Thanks But are they 26 x 2.35?

Are you being sarcastic? I'm recommending you one of the best tyres on the market and I've linked you to a pair for sale at a quarter of the price new. The ad clearly says 2.2. I don't suppose I'll bother helping next time.

2.35 maxxis tyres measure up smaller than the 2.2's in the advert.

My trail tyres are Maxxis High Rollers... They're brilliant for the types of trails I ride and for my skill lever.

Running a 2.35 on you hardrock rear will leave you with very little clearance. I run a 2.35 front and 2.25 rear.

No! You should run whatever size you like. I'm just giving you some info based on my experience with the same bike. I felt the stock Alex rims were a bit flexy too when pushed hard into corners, this coupled with large volume tyres saw the rubber contacting the frame. It should be noted that I'm no lightweight though.

Aw okay
