But, after 2 ISDEs, I'm quite fond of the tires as they work well everywhere and are probably the best tires for grass track on the planet. Nice thing about Metzeler (and Mitas) is both companies have booths at the ISDE so you just have to place your order ahead of time, show up and get your tires.

One thing, make sure you get the right size mousses for your tires. Michelin tires don't work with metzeler mousses, for example.
