Freestyle is the answer to everything --
a fresh way to approach a dull or a
dangerous thing.
to do a dull thing with style
is preferable to doing a dangerous thing
without it.

Odyssey Aitkens are probably the best dirt-specific tires. They are sweet on street and decent at park.
Fit FAF 2.25 are best street/park and are great (2nd best) for dirt. IMO #1 all terrain tire.
Fly Ruben Ramperas look like they function strikingly similar to FAF 2.25s, I would imagine they aren't noticeably different from them grip-wise. Seem like a nice tire to have.
Demolition Machetes seem nice for dirt specific due to their knobiness and hard compound, but I heard theyre pretty ehhh on street and park. Wouldnt run them personally.

Wat. Faf is horrible on dirt if you don't buy the knobby. Absolute. Crap. Knobby is good, normal is not.

I guess its a good thing I said "FAF 2.25" and not "FAF" then.

well i went to this new skatepark that was just build recently and i slid a little bit because it was so slippery but i think everyones tires were sliding there. but it was only like the street section of the park that it was noticeable. but on non slippery ass parks. those things grip like a motherfucker. even when the streets dusty or dirty. but i can't speak for dirt sorry. but if i were to come across some trails i would more than trust my hawks. but i also used to ride a odyssey path in the back and that was great for everything and i know that tire is good for dirt. so if you're in doubt maybe get a path in the back

Bad thing I'm an egotistical a-hole that has a hard time sucking up his pride and has a hard time admitting mistakes. Ok. Whoops.

honestly, I just ride whatever tires I get for free from friends/ whatever is cheapest for me to get at the local bike shop
people tend to wanna toss tires that still got plenty of tread on em... that's what I ride lol
don't help you much, just figured Id toss that in for ya to think about...

Not trying to jack but I know you like those maxxis grifters, I am hard on tires, are they thick? Do they wear out fast ?

I've had deharts and I loved them for street. But those things slide like hell at park and I have no doubt they would slide all over the place on dirt

my favorites are;
KHE MAC Dirt on the front (2.25 I believe inflated)
fit FAF-k 2.25 rear
really light and due to the kevlar beads i seem to get a lot less punctures and unlike the other KHE tyres these seem to last well
