Michelin Ultra Heavy Duty tubes.
Pros: Very thick, overlapped and relocated seam
Cons: a little more expensive thn other brands. Heavy like most tubes of that thickness.

I find them worth the extra few bucks, but everybody has a preference.

As long as you stick with a good name brand tube, you should be fine.

Either one of the suggested brands work fine, they are great for trail riding. They are a bit heavier, but unless your racing youll never notice

I'm seriously considering springing for these so I can run at ~5 psi through sand.
