A softer compound would give you better grip (especially on hard surfaces) and a little better ride.

I run my buggy on the street as well. The front tires I use are stock "all terrain" front tires for a beetle. I run them on and off road.

I run Mickey Thompsons Mini Mags, they grip very good on the street and the trail, they don't sling stuff in your face.
