We don’t have that bad of rocky conditions unless I head out to the mountains and pick the “hard trails.”

It is an awesome beast. I choose tires on a slightly different bias - width 1st, sidewalls second & decent tread design third. I ride a lot of rocky conditions, and have ripped out three sidewalls in the past year. Also, riding hard tail the width is key to getting a nice low pressure, to smooth out the bumps & maintain traction. I run Stans in the tires, and my current favorite on our dry rocks it the WTB Weirwolf 2.55 LT. It is amazingly fast, smooth & only lacks traction when conditions get greasy or sandy - not a primary concern on the ridges I ride. I'm thinking about picking up a set of the same tires with the full tread for the spring. Great write up on your tires - I’d like to post a few of my 1×1 tire comments:
