Hello, i recently got the 2013 kink whip and have been wanting to order new tires. I currently have Kenda Kontact 2.25 for front tire and Kenda Kontact 1.95 for rear tire. I want a front and back tire with white walls. All of the tire combos people have told me to get dont have the option of getting white walls. Do any of you guys know a good tire combo that would have white walls on the front and back tire. Would it be okay to have two of the same tires just different sizes? Thanks!

If you need white walls, go 2.25" FAF in the front, 2.2" TWW in the back.

Otherwise, 2.25" Ruben in the front, 2.1" Revenge Folding in the back.

Odyssey Chase Hawk tyres come in white walls now also. I'm not 100% sure the 2.4" will clear the forks on your Whip however you could get 2 x 2.20" versions?

why white walls? they get dirty so quick if you grind. but if you must, the FAF 2.25 and a TWW 2.2 will work wonders and feel amazing. i used to run that combo myself until i went with 2.25 machetes front and back.

Would it be fine to have the TWW 2.2 in the back and the Fit FAF K-Folding tire. So would it be fine to have a folding tire in front but not one in the back?

Ive also thought of getting the Shadow Conspiracy Undertaker tire with 2.25 for front and Animal TWW 2.2 for back. Does that sound like a good combo. Should the TWW be 2.2 or 2.0 for the back?

The folding FAFs are shit. Stick with the regular FAFs.

yea stay away from folding FAF, ive ridden an undertaker before and it wore out pretty damn fast.

and please dont make multiple threads on the same topic. its will annoy all of us.

so recap- 2.25 FAF up front, 2.2 TWW in the rear. and no multi threads
