| If someone could post a review of a front tire that will be good for street and will hold up against curbs/grinding, it would be much appreciated.

| Shadow undertaker even though its dirt it has bigger sidewalls so it wont tear. Cant really review it because its so awesome and if i ever need another i will get it. | |

| I'm thinking about running another Animal GLH in front. Would you prefer a Shadow undertaker over an Animal GLH? | |

| It's all about sliders and sketchy gay chaddy ass ledges that have rough gay spots that cut into your tire then go boom when you do a massdog smith.
Thats what happened to the last GLH I had. They have weak sidewalls. | |

| No its the tire because tires with bigger sidewalls should be able to handle that stuff. | |

| Yeah, but thats you. I don't ride like you and you don't ride like me. I don't find the tyres that good to be quite honest.
Just straight up I'll give you a review right now on some tyres. Fly Rubens. Durability: 9/10 Strong tyre. Tread was thick. Both tyres lasted me over a year. Strong sidewalls. Handled abuse pretty easy. I slider out of fakies basically all the time so the tread on the front held up pretty nice.
Fit FAF. Haven't busted these bad boys yet. Had 'em for about 2 months. Treads thick. But then again I've got the Monster 2.25's. No tread wear as of yet. Very grippy.
Theres 2 for ya Vista. | |

| Thank you for finally posting a Review scholzee. It's refreshing to have someone follow instructions instead of doing what I originally posted not to do. | |

| If your getting Fit FAF's don't get anything under 2.25. The tread is super thick on 2.25. Under 2.25's are smaller thinner tread. No go zone.
If you were goin' a good tyre combo. 2 2.25 Fly Rubens. Nice tyre they are. Sturdy, tough sidewalls. Or 2 2.25 Fit FAF's. I'm running these bad boys now. Thick tread and fast rolling. Or get 2 ASMs. | |
