What rear tyre? New Hans Dampf is too big

Moor

I have just fitted front and rear 2.35 hans dampf super gravity tubeless tyres, first time time with tubeless and after much buggering about I got them fitted only to find the rear is a couple of millimetres too big and rubs on the frame which peed me off some what as you can inagine. So I need to get a 2.25 to replace it, my question is what to get? Ideally schwalbe to match the front, I have a trailstar front and pacestar rear so I guess a pace star is best, I was thinking Racing Ralph with snakeskin, a good option?

A nobby nic is one step down from the Hans Dampf, so id look at one of those.

The Racing Ralph is a far quicker running tyre than the HD. RR are great tyres but probably not what you are after if you have an HD 2.3 on the front.

Thanks for the reply, a bit more searching agrees with you that nobby nics are best on the rear with hans dampf so just ordered one with double defence, should be here on Saturday so I can get back out on Sunday. I hope the sealant isn't too messy on the rear hans dampf, I'm hoping I can still sell it on.

I'd tend to agree with Spacedog, Racing Ralph with HD wouldn't work I don't think as they're to far apart in terms of what they're made to handle
