front or rear?
 
I need to decide fast; I can only afford one tire so which should it be? Kenda Blue groove rear or Nevegal front? I land moreso on my back tire, but isn't having a bigger front tire better for cornering? I can't decide...I would buy both but it would be $130! :mad: Help me!

Better to have your best tire out front.

yeah a bigger front tire helps with carving the turns.
What is you current set up?

Well if he is doing the FR/DH having a good front tire is very important. Hopefully he isn't asking for advice on which tire if both are balder than Kojak. I know that is assuming on my part, but I am giving some faith that they are not. Oi to the world.
