looking for a new rear tire and maybe front for my rm250 as the rear is fucked. and im having real bad traction issues

whats a good alround tire? mostly riding on grass, mud and clay?

also looking for something on the cheap side as funds are a bit low at the moment. any reccomendations?

cheers

Going to be good to have somewhere else to go now on the shore. Its only 3mins from where my bike is. Needing to get some mc5's soon so hope prices are going to be comparable.

I found tha Kenda shit in anything a little bit slippery aye. and it has crap sideways traction.

I got a S12 and that is bloody good. lasted much better then Booms metzler and it has great traction. with summer around the corner you may want to look at teh m12.

S12's are great. Go get one. Don't piss around with the budget brands.
