Gummy tires? Tire recommendations?

Any of y’all running gummy tires on your Varg?

I’m still on the stock tires on the EX but thinking about my next set of tires. On my gas bike I’ve been running Mitas XT 454 Double Green, but wondering if they might be too soft for the torquey Stark.

If you’ve found a tire combo you like for forest singletrack or semi hard enduro drop it here!

For the slippery clay forest round here everyone runs Mitas XT 754 Double Green with Tublis at 3 psi. I'm using that on my Stark and getting 40-50 hours out of each one.

I don't think there's a huge difference between the Stark and other bikes when it comes to tyres. We're all limited by the amount of grip that we have. I'm finding there's no point turning it up to more tha 35 hp, coz 35 hp will use all the grip there is and more. Going to higher power levels just means the back end just breaks free more suddenly.

I am still wearing out the stock tires. But on my other bikes (KTM 300 2T and Yam WR450) I use IRC JX8s and ix09s which I also plan to use on my MX. The ix09s are a more of pure gummy, the JX8 are kind of a hybrid. Almost all of my riding is semi HE or single in northeast US which means mud, roots, rocks.
