I'm after a tyre for dry dusty trails and was interested in the Small Block 8. But seems largest size is 2.35.

Looking for a 2.5 with a similar tread profile/level of performance.

Any suggestions?

WTB Werewolf 2.55"?

Low profile chevron knobs asopposed to block arrays, but behaves similarly on the front IMO. Not sure about rear though.

The 2.35 comes up pretty big. I pair mine with a Nevagal 2.5 on the front.

Decent tyre, rolls well, fails to grip predictably

Similar performance from a 2.4" Racing Ralph and they are pretty damn wide (although I have only tried the 29er version)

igm is right, i bought some 1.95 for my xc bike and was very surprised how big they were.
