Some good replies here !

The Trigger is the tire with less volume, I think. LAS looks like it's a tire that would measure more then 33, but I think it would maybe wear too fast ?!

Gravel King SK looks like it measures true to size. Is it supple ? I'm looking mostly at the 35, not the 40. Maybe even the 32, but if they don't measure more when mounted I think 35 is the ticket.

Looking ace! This setup could still clear a decent amount of mud. Do you have a pic of the side too? It must look good with the Aileron's on them.
Ride it like you stole it

Now I want Aileron's too :D

Nice setup with the 160mm discs, looks like a solid combo! :beerchug:
