New tyre on front or rear??

JGTR

Morning

I have a Specialized Ground Control and a Purgatory for my 29" Camber, both 2.3"

Which one would be better on the front/rear?

The Purgatory is a grippier tyre so logic says it should go on front????

Will be riding mainly trail centres, Bedgebury, Hadleigh Park.

Thanks

When I was looking at new tyres I considered that combo and the spesh shop guy said he ran purgatory on front, ground on rear.
I ended up going for a HR2/Ardent combo tho which I'll be trying out when I get to Haldon in about an hour or so!

Grippy on the front unless you enjoy front wash outs.
