Yes, they will fit the frame, unless you're doing a lot of stair gaps go for the HolyRollers instead. Maybe a Hookworm in the rear and a HolyRoller up front.

im not sure if they will fit on a p.2, because i'm told that i cant get 2.5" for the rear cuz of the frame geometry. You can definitly get one up front with the proper fork though

i've got an '03 p2 frame and my hookworms fit with plenty of clearance. they work great for street, and very hard packed jumps, but anything else: :stosh: . for strictly street, i love my hookworms

i suggest a street tire like arrow launch, kenda k-rad, maxxis holyroller, etc. for the front. that's what i'm looking at doing for the front

i think that has to do with most tires that have knobs. hookworms are slicks so they don't have cornering knobs that stick out, and are thinner than most other 2.5's because of that.

yeah you probally are right... if you want some grip id go for the holy rollers. Im runnin 2.35 maxxis minions and they work like a dream.... so maybe try those too
