3C MaxxTerra
Maxxis' 3C MaxxTerra is an intermediate triple compound configuration used across our mountain tire line. The 3C MaxxTerra compound offers more traction than 3C MaxxSpeed, yet provides better treadwear and less rolling resistance than MaxxGrip, which makes it ideal for trail riding in all conditions.

Double Down (DD)
Double Down (DD) is our casing solution for enduro racing and e-bike use. Two layers of our lightweight 120 TPI casing material are combined with a butyl sidewall insert to create a highly durable tire with more trail feedback than a Downhill casing tire. Double Down tires are marginally lighter than their Downhill counterparts, but it's really the difference in "trail feel" that sets the two apart. Some riders may prefer the highly damped ride provided by a DH casing tire.

Wide Trail
Wide Trail (WT) construction optimizes the tire's tread layout and profile on today's modern, wider rims. Historically, tires were designed around older, narrower rims which can create an overly square tire profile, leading to suboptimal performance. Our Wide Trail (2.4-2.5" width) tires are optimized for a 35mm inner rim width, but are proven to work over a range of 30-35mm inner rim widths, depending on the rider's preference.

Tubeless ready tries provide the rider with many benefits: the ability to run lower air pressures, which improves traction, lower rolling resistance when compared to a tube-type tire, and less chance of flatting because there is no tube. Tubeless ready tires are denoted by the letters "TR" on the sidewall.

Tubeless ready tires must be mounted to tubeless compatible rims and require the use of a liquid sealant to maintain pressure. Liquid sealant to maintain pressure. Liquid sealants have added benefit of sealing small punctures. Be sure to check your sealant regularly and refresh as needed as it will dry out over time.

Liquid sealants should only be used in the following types of tires: tubeless road, tubular, and tubeless ready. The use of liquid sealants in any other Maxxis tire will void the warranty.
