I have a strada in the back and its never slipped. The only down side is it's not as fat as i'd like.
Im 15 years old, I suck at BMX, I live in Texas.
That's all.

faf's suck, do not get those please. lol My faf's wore down in like 4 months. I like the looks of those shadows, they look really nice. If you get those please let me know how you like them. Might try those out too. But I ride street. I like duo stunner lows, their really nice tires.

Deharts seem legit. I won't run anything on front other than my faf 2.25s.on rear I'm using a GLH now, super legit. Prob gonna get a smaller inflated width 2.10 next time (used to faf 2.10 rear). I think Fit/Animal/Cult/Eclat/Maxxis/Ody tires would be the best bet. I've heard good on all of them. But FAF 2.25 has lasted me a year with the original tube I bought with it
still 70-80% tread. I grind some and do a lot of tire slides out of fakies. No problems whatsoever.

My Deharts were the worst tire I've ever seen. As if the huge bulges that made it seem as though I had egged my rim weren't bad enough, they slipped out badly on asphalt, like they were oiled. I personally would stay away from those. Of the rest of those brands, Odyssey is the only other modern brand I have owned, and they wear really well and the grip is awesome!

I like my GLH's. I know someone that had a Strada up front and he liked it, and I liked it when I rode his bike.

Get some Odyssey Ross Tires. I'm on my second set and my first set lasted me about a year. Can't go wrong with Odyssey.

Any of the Animal tires, never heard a bad word said about em.
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.

Sounds good, I'd recommend GLH's over TWW's but that's mainly personal preference.
I'll get GLH's then
2.25 and 2.10
