What Tires for my Scott Spark 60 2012

[Guest Divan Ras]

Hi people

 

I currently have a Scott Spark 60 2012 model and need to replace my tires.

 

Currently have 2.1 x 26 Maxxis Larse TT Lust UST Tubeless and I notice that I have to inflate up too 2.3 ~ 2.5bar not to hit the rim when going through rocky trails.

So I have two options, loose weight or get wider tires.....thus me looking for wider tires.

 

I was looking at getting Michelin Wild Gripper Tubeless 26 x 2.25 at http://www.evobikes.co.za/tyres/mtb-26-tyres/michelin-wild-gripper-tubeless-26-x-2-25.html going for R500each

 

Any other suggestions or is it a good tire?
