Falken drifting tires or some Latvian snow expedition tires would work well

IMHO, i think it really depends on where your running, what temps your running at, how grippy your rocks are, how much traction you can get off the rocks, and what you are doing most (climbs or side hill)

But, in general, id have to say, the Hot Bodies Rovers or the Hot Bodies Sedonas

What I got. I put Rover white dots on and they climb like monkeys on speed compared to the stock Claws. Had an issue putting them on correctly but that should be solved with a mason jar ring.

New Use for a Mason Jar Lid!!

If your running 1.9, use the Proline Flat Irons. Their an amazing multi surface tire and probubly the only tire I'll use.
