My DJ bike has 2.1s on it right now. They look like tires to me.

I am looking some new tires specifically Minion F/High Roller Rear. I know Maxxis tires are generally smaller than other brands so is a 2.7 Minion basically the same as a 2.5 of other brands? I have 2.35 High Rollers atm but I think they are a bit small so I want to go up to 2.5 (for a different bike though). Will 2.7 Minion Front and 2.5 High Roller Rear be a good combination or will 2.7 in the front be too big? I have no experience so I am wondering what people think. Cheers

I have that combo on my Sunday, and I love it. 2.7 Minion will not be too wide, and it grips like no tomorrow

are there Minions 2.7?
Because my gambler has 2.5 minions front and 2.35 rear, and it looks a bit weird because they are a bit thin
