Great rear tire for my emtb. Great grip and rolls fast for such a knobby tire. The lugs are the best size for heavier full powered emtbs wet or dry.

Unbeatable Grip and Durability: Why the Chunk Tough/Grip tires are worth the $$
If you’re new to this mountain bike tire brand, let me break it down for you: I first tried the Chunk Tough tire as a rear option about two years ago, during the rainy start of winter on the muddy trails of Santa Cruz. I was genuinely impressed by how well it handled, delivering both speed and solid grip. Recently, I upgraded to a setup with the Chunk Tough/Grip on the front and Chunk Tough on the rear, both in a wider 2.6” size. That setup worked so well that I put four other sets of tires away for good!
What really stands out with these tires is the lug design—it’s ideal for full-powered eMTBs. When you lean into those side lugs, they hold steady, giving you the control and confidence you need. I was so impressed that when the 29” Chunk Tough/Grip went on sale, I bought a second set just weeks after my first purchase! These tires are built to deliver, especially for riders seeking speed, grip, and durability.
