[QUOTE="firffighter, post: 1334203, member: 58725"] Interesting thread. I rode all last season on the MT43 after using just about every recommended knobby out there including the Pirelli MT16, Maxxis IT, IRC Vulanduro, etc. The MT43 really is unbelievable. You can still brake slide into corners (not as well as a knobby), and it hooks up in nearly every condition better than any knobby I have used. I used it on my KDX220 and my brother did as well on his KDX220. We raced a handful of events last year ranging from very tight, steep, muddy, rooted woods enduros to open desert type terrain harescrambles. The MT43 worked will in all situations. We both ran a MSR heavy duty tube and 1 rimlock and neither of us had any issues with flats (700+miles). The only time I longed to have a knobby was in some freshly groomed single track we rode last fall that was fairly deep loam. A knobby would have dug into that loam better, but the MT43 still worked well, just not as well as a knobby would have. Just as a side note, I just ran a Michelin X-11 a couple of weeks ago to compare and it gets amazing grip, but it does not corner as well as the MT43 due to the soft compound. It feels like you have a flat all of the time. Just my.02 [/QUOTE]
