I’ve always run the same model of tyre front and rear (although have run some that have specific F&R versions like Smoke/Dart back in the day or Duster F&R), but I see a fair few people running totally different treads front and back.
Just wondering 3 things.
1 What’s the reasoning (I think this is fairly obvious but might have missed something)?
2 How different can you go front and back?
3 What mismatched combo do you run and why?
Just wondering why and how a very different combo like (e.g.) a High Roller semi-slick or Continental Twister on the rear would work with a grippier front end like a Rubber Queen? Would the fast rolling/drifty rear be just too different to the grippy front?
