Take a look at Kenda Nevegals, or Panaracer Fire XC pro's.

I really enjoyed the Nevegals, but if it's a pure mud tyre then the Panaracer Trailraker makes a great tyre for gloopy conditions.

I like the nevegals too, they're no mud tyre but they can do a bit of everything, fine on hardpack, fine in light mud... Great allrounders. Lots of people love Maxxis High Rollers too, similiar sort of a tyre.
I dunno, these modern mud tyres are pretty fantastic but it seems to me they mainly allow you to ride places you shouldn't, splashing your way through mud pits which would be better left to recover. But maybe I'm just old ![]()

The tread looks like it wouldn't be very good off-road but I find it very grippy! Here's a review website for them... http://www.mtbr.com/cat/tires-and-wh...19_151crx.aspx |
