I got some spez sawtooth tyres from Stoke. I like them. Grippy and tough. Won't be throwing them out soon. Also skin wall looks "tit".

The Specialized Sawtooth is a very good option and looks great. Unfortunately they were too wide for my frame and i went back to my Maxxis Ramblers. 

 

The Ramblers are fast rolling both on and off road and they are extremely light compared to the rest.

 

Pictures arent great I know but atleast will hep to see tyre and thread.
