| Woody I appriciate what you had to say about the millville. And I have to agree that these Kendas run forever, as I've had my Carlsbad for 14 months and it's still looking good. I got it for free from a friend who though he'd used it up after 8 races plus practices on a kxf250. However I believe the Carlsbad to be a better all around tire when turned in the intermediate direction. The rear Kenda Calsbad is a tire I believe will always serve the purposes I need and I plan on buying more when I need a new rear tire. I've been running a Carlsbad on the front of my bike as well and but have noticed that it seems to have a somewhat wishy washy feeling at higher speeds. However I've heard good things about the Millville front tires and plan on trying one of them. |

| Dunlop for now, but I'm going to try Michelin next. D756 front. It's ok, but I think it's not the right tire for whre I ride. D739 A/T Desert rear. I like the rear and it's lasted almost a year on the 500R. |

| I am currently running Dunlop front and rear 739 and 756. My next tire will be a Maxxis Desert IT on the rear. Might try one on the front too but I have a few dunlops to wear out first. I ride a Yamaha 426 in the desert mostly. Tough terrain that chews up tires pretty good. |

| I run a Bridgestone M401 and M402 on my kx and i ride everything from rocky mountain sides to shale pits to arenacross tracks. I love the tire and have gotten good use out of it im to the point of replacing myself and i wouldnt have anything else but mabye the maxis i/t they are the same tire from different companies. Good luck with you decision. |

| I've got a Maxxis IT and I have no clue what any other tire feels like, I know this tire really hooks up though. I will be buying a new maxxis front tire pretty soon too. Maxxis |

| Dunlop is releasing a new tire, the 952. They claim its a longer lasting tire (new compound and know structure) for a wide variety of dirt (whatever thats gonna mean in the real world). Anyway, I hope to read/hear some reviews on it soon, I need new treads. |

That should be interesting, I love their 752's, but they don't last at all, but that's OK, I can get barely used ones for 5 bucks. |

| Right now I am using the 125-size Michelin S12 on the rear, and a Dunlop D756 on the front. It has been pretty good. I plan on trying the 250-size S12 for the rear, and a D742 for the front as my next combo. Should be better from everything I've read. |
