The gravity / DH tire category has been dominated by a few specific options for years, but Kenda aims to change that with their Hellkat Pro. So we spent a few months riding on the Hellkat Pro to see how it compares to options like the Maxxis Minion DHF, Maxxis High Roller II, and WTB Convict.

WTB WeirWolf AM TCS 2.3

The WTB WeirWolf 2.3 AM TCS is a sleeper in the AM genre, and it's definitely worth a look for its balance of speed, traction, and value. Plus it has ziggurats. Bet your lame tire doesn't have ziggurats....

Whether you ride DH, XC, or a unicycle, if you think tires are all sorta the same, you need to read this review. (Besides, it might just be the best tire review ever written....)
