Anybody know of a 20" direction style street tread tire? 1.75 or 1.95 preferred. I've done a little searching and have found some freestyle tires but the treads look too "busy". I'm looking for something with a clean look.

Which direction are you looking for???
Do you mean the tires with say, arrows on them, or what?
 
The tire on the front of my 'Ray is directional it is a CST Operative tire

OK I get it!!! I was remembering the old OZ? freestyle tires that had arrows for the tread pattern.
 
Chips,
Maxxis makes a bmx race tire called the DTH. They come in a bunch of different sizes in both wire bead and kevlar folding bead. They look like something off a sportbike, smooth like a slick with grooves cut in them. My kids run them on their race bikes and they look killer. The only downside is it's a soft compound race tire, so they may not last long if you do a ton of riding.

I saw all of these tires (I think) when I was looking around. I guess I'm looking for a slick type of tire that's rounded, not square, and has some type of forward directional pattern. I'll be running an OCC Stingray style of tire on the rear so I'd like something to compliment it somewhat and not have a tread pattern that's too "busy". Does that help or make it worse?

Heck, just scroll through their tires, I'm sure you'll find something you like!
Plus free ground shipping on orders over $30 right now(not sure when that ends since I don't have a catalog handy at the moment).
