Like the title said, over the weekend i was out on the trails and my rear tire on my anthem x2 29er blew on me. I was wondering what are some great tires to change over to? I ride on pretty much every surface type so i'd need one that can handle it all. Thanks for your help

I couldn't tell you what psi, I'm new to biking so i just bought it off the dealer and it was set up from the start. I'll be looking over the tire later tonight to see if there is actual tire damage or maybe just the tire seal was broken since its tubeless?

I heard the Panaracer Rampage is a fantastic tire all around. Specialized Ground Control is also pretty solid, but a little less grippy and faster rolling than the Rampage.

Travis, tires do not just "blow out". Is it a punture or a slice. If punctured then galvanize patch it on the inside and save your money for something needed. If sliced, replace it, seems like a good choice from the manufacturer. I won't recommend any tire until I know what type of terrain you typically ride. Nanos are fine for XC but not a great trail tire. My 2 cents, pardner. Keep it rollin'Facepalm
