Hey y'all,

I'm looking for a winter tire to pair with my ENVE 3.4 (hookless variant). My bike (an SL8) can take up to 32mm tires and I think I'd like to use all of that clearance!

ENVE compatibility chart looks pretty limited in terms of winter tires. For those of you rocking ENVE wheels, what are you using for winter?

The GP 5000 AS isn't on their list, but Conti claims they're hookless compatible. Looks like a pretty option for the winter. Anybody know if these are good to go?

Presumably Conti uses the same bead dimensions for the AS TR as the S TR. I would feel pretty confident in putting 30mm and 32mm AS TRs on SES 3.4s...I'd probably even be fine with 28s.

I use the Corsa N.EXT TLR G2.0 . They work really well with Enve Rims.

I assume the new Tufo comtura prima tr will be a good fit as well, as they manufacture the Enve labeled tires also.

Schwalbe Winter is probably the only real choice for winter riding. Most manufacturers don't do spiked tires at all and this is the only one from Schwalbe line that is made this narrow. I don't think it would work with a hookless rim though.

I ran Schwalbe Pro One TLE 28s all last winter on my enve 4.5 wheelset. Not the fastest tires available but I found them confidence inspiring in less than ideal conditions.
