V12man Posted January 3, 2017 Posted January 3, 2017 No question- put on exactly what you wife wants... then she can't blame you.... which will happen if you even suggest something else

MphatiPyga Posted January 3, 2017 Posted January 3, 2017 Listen to this wise man!But then again you might put them on wrong somehow and the blame will switch to you. But it's her choice, both good tyres anyway, some opinions will differ however

_im_from_earth Posted January 4, 2017 Posted January 4, 2017 @Tunariaan you have some wise advice above, but you are correct, there is more choice now than ever before on Maxxis (double XX) tyres. One thing that may be a good compromise for you to consider is the 2.35" Ikon, these haven't been in the SA market for too long, and are a great "introduction" to larger volume tyres while still maintaining the predictable, dependable and fast rolling Ikon tread pattern.
