So are you just looking for brand recommendations?

I don't know a pile about tires, and especially for x-cross. I like the Yokohama Parada Spec II's that are out these days, that's what I plan on getting.

There may have been some discussions on here about Hoosiers, try doing a search and see if anything comes up.

How they sit will depend on what size you buy.

I've read numerous reviews about them and most, if not all, we favorable. They are a very good tire.

I ride on Michelin Pilot Sport, they are expensive but suite me the best..

For dry condtions, they are about the same..

But in wet weather, my Pilots are insane.. You know when you push your car to point that you know you shouldnt (in the rain), and your thinking, I'm gonna skid... but somehow my tires always held up..

In my bunch of friends we're only 2 peeps riding on these, me and a friend with an A4 1.8T GIAC and the works.. After riding in all the cars, we all agreed, that these 2 tires are the best.. But in the rain, the Pilots are definately on top.
