Holeshot Radial ATRs are a good tire to run on pavement and gravel. A lot of the guys around here run those for blacktop and gravel and they're not a bad trail and snow tire either. I rode a Grizzly with them and I was pretty surprised how well they hooked up for being as mild of a tread as they are.
