Description: (from wtb.com)
Inspired and designed by WTB Pro cross country & downhill racer Mark Weir, the design features a fast-rolling, soil piercing central tread that is ramped for low roll resistance and square-edged for powerful braking. Large transitional openings between knobs channel soil outward, enhancing traction as progressive staggered outside knobs provide maximum support in leans and corners.
* Deep tread

Pros
Long lasting tire.
Cons
To the guy that said they wear quickly... what do you consider "quickly"?
Review
I put tons of miles on my last set. Been riding ONE SET for 5 years!!! Yeah, they were worn out when I finally replaced them, but they lasted through the tough Arizona terrain like a champ. I race Expert downhill and gave these tires a pounding on my xc bike.
Pros
Avail. in 2.5" width
Cons
Are kinda soft and wear quickly
Review
If you ride in loose dry conditions, a great tire. Not good for wet or muddy conditions though.
Pros
Killer grip on loose flat trails and absolutely the best bite in the worst of sandy conditions.
Cons
Weak side knobs cause a lot of shifting and sideways sliding when riding in hard packed, rocky, and root laden trails, especially when run at low pressures
Review
Overall good tire, but I'd personally spend my money on Velociraptors instead.
Pros
Great value - paid $29 per.
Excellent traction in all conditions.
Corner better than anything I've ever ridden.
Can run at higher pressures and still maintain good traction.
They look great and leave cool tracks! :)

Cons
Load up a bit and get slick in mud or sticky soil.
Wear fast on pavement - not great if you have to ride to the trailhead.
A bit heavy.

Review
Highly recommend for anyone on any budget. These have been the best upgrade I've done to date that has immediately improved my game. They corner and stop so well, I find myself pushing much harder into the corners. If they do break loose, it only takes a minor correction to hook back up and continue - if they don't correct themselves.
Pros
Hooks up great in loose/rocks/rooty conditions, good in the wet, clears mud well, 2.5 just barely fits in my Skareb fork, easy to mount on mavic rims
Cons
none
Review

Cons
tread flex on hard surface,tread clogging in mud
Review
