Hey, I need a new tire. I was looking at buying a new tire. I had a blow out on kenda k-rads, and i am looking for a good dirt/street tire. I was thinking small block 8's? just wondering, thanks

SB8's don't suck, especially if you ever ride on dirt and don't hike your bike to the jump line.

Bontrager G1 they kinda look like the small block 8 and they roll FASTER , they dont weigh to much, they pump up to 80psi but i run mine at 100 and have never had any problems, they only cost me $24.99 each ! so there pretty cheap for a good long lasting tire! also they make a super sick hollow sound when they roll!

Those look cool, I'm loving the price....

Can't beat $5 for a lightly used SB8 though.

I'd look around your local craigslist.

The High Roller and the Holy Roller are two different tires. The High Roller is a heavy DH tire and the Holy Roller is a lighter urban/dirt/street/park type tire. A very popular tire on the DJ's and park. They actually look very similar to the K-Rad tread, but I feel they stick better. I have rolled with both, and I highly recommend the Holy Rollers.

Yeah, I get that the high roller and holy roller are different. But I was relating. Specialized makes one that is similar to the sb8. and I'm thinking that. If I get some money, i'm going for the holy roller
