Bloody iPhone screen!! Was trying to select rollers but it hit minions then entered it 
That's gonna screw up your poll....whoops. Minions are a bit over the top for dj, holy rollers though are magic tyres. A lot more grip then what you would think and they roll really fast. No comparison really.

Larsen tt, grip that wont bugger lips and landers, as well as faster rolling than most.

umm... both will feel pretty slow and fat. if you want to switch tyres try something with a lower profile tread.
personally i like kenda npj rear and a folding xc tyre on the front for dirt jumping only. npj front and maxxis dth rear if you want to ride street as well

2.35" or less Larsens are really good, nice and fast rolling, heaps of grip on BMX tracks and DJ's. Work well for me

Maxxis dth, specialized rhythm lite, both good, dth is better.
Table tops are shit for street, small block 8s are even crapper, okish for dirt but they flat so easily and wear out so fast, Larson tt's don't even come close to comparing with dth's. Holly rollers are dated and minnions should NEVER be used on a jump bike, ever...

Get a singleply wheel to reduce weight. If you're doing DJ you shouldnt' be rubbing against many sharp rocks.

K-rads are similar to holy rollers but shittier
Yeah k-rads are pretty bad, and heavy.
Cheap option i'm currently using is wtb vulpine, grip surprisingly well for street, not too bad on hard pack either. But if i wasn't being a tight ass i'd go small block 8's or larsens.

i had small block 8s. the sidewalls are paper thin so i had quite a few tears, got flats all the time and didnt grip that well. waste of money in my opinion. the dth is half the price, rolls faster and grips hard pack really well, theyre also rated for higher pressures so for park and street you can have a super fast rolling tyre and a reduced chance of pinchflats.

Pretty surprised no ones mentioned intense micro knobby's...
Sick tyre, super grippy (shocked me, I was expecting a street tyre) on pretty much everything except in the wet.. I've got the steel bead ones cause they're cheaper, definitely getting another set once these wear out..
