Maxxis Minion DHR II Tires

This tire excels on loose, technical, and muddy terrain. Its paddle-like center knobs are designed to dig into soft ground for aggressive braking, while the reinforced shoulder knobs provide the grip needed for confident cornering on loose surfaces.

Yes, this is a tubeless-ready tire. Running it tubeless allows you to use lower tire pressures for better traction and comfort, while also significantly reducing the risk of pinch flats.

The Minion DHR II features a 'Wide Trail' casing, which is optimized for modern rims with an internal width between 30mm and 35mm. This creates a stable, predictable profile that prevents the tire from feeling squirmy during hard cornering.

EXO+ is a robust puncture protection layer that balances durability with weight. It is significantly more resistant to sidewall cuts and tread punctures than standard casings, making it a reliable choice for aggressive trail and downhill riding.

While the DHR II is widely considered a rear-specific tire due to its braking-focused tread pattern, many riders also use it as a front tire in muddy or extremely loose conditions where maximum braking traction is the priority.
