NEWBY'S

Tyres
Hi, I am riding the Huski 50 and Dirtworks 100 and was wondering about tyre choice. I am running Kenda nevegal 2.35s at the moment but thinking about 1.95s or 2.0s. Would i notice the difference? eg. rolling weight and grip. i will be using tubes. Does tyre size affect the chance of pinch flats? Is there anything i should look for in particular when making a choice for an enduro tyre?
Thanks
Trev
