My LBS hooked me up with some tires that just don't work with Stans, leaks out the sidewall, not at the rim but through the tire. They have a limited amount of tires there, but does anyone have any suggestions on a tire set up that works good with Stans? They don't have any Kenda tires though. I've got to go pick them up tomorrow before we leave for AZ.

I have had good luck with WTB Wierwolves . 3of 4 worked

So far all Tioaga tires have converted flawlessly . 4 of 4

FYI Kenda does not approve of Stan's juice. A chemical reaction causes seperation of rubber from the thread .

Thanks for the info. I had read that too about Kenda, but I know people who are still doing it. I'm about 99% on the Weirwolfes. I know they have them there, so I'll at least run one of those up front.

I gave up on the continentals. We put on some WTB MOTO Raptors and they are really good. No issues whatsoever. And a Schwalbe Albert in the back.
