         I used Mitas E-09's last year, and will again this year, but obv they're a 21" front. Dazzer is right though, you don't really need proper knobblies, plenty do it on Tourance-type tyres.
        
 Funnily enough I had a fairly serious conversation with a mate last year about doing it on supermotos this year - figuring you would potentially be so much faster on the tarmac bits than on knobblies, and only slightly handicapped on the dirty bits.
