Tentatively planning on running Vittoria Terreno Dry 40mm tires on dry dry days. That's the kinda hexagonal shaped file tread with side knobs.
Yeah IDK what to do in dry. I will probably just run my all around tires in the dry races, although I thought about running 38c Panaracer GK SK. I do have some Vittoria Terreno Dry but I don't really like the transition to the side knobs.
This year I'm running Panaracer Regacross until it gets super muddy. Tires are really supple, lightweight and can run pretty low pressure on them, passing finger burp test at 25psi. You can also find them for $30-35 apiece. I have the 33c but thought about getting the 35c for that little bit extra cushion/traction. Finally, they setup really easily, snap right into place and don't require sealant.
What it gets muddy so do my choices.
- Donnelly BOS really good tire in mud but would need to purchase another set since my wife runs these now in mud.
- Vittoria Cross XL, okish in my experience. Can also get them in 31mm so thats nice.
- Also on radar Schwalbe X-one bite. A friend of mine had really good experience with those last year.
