if you look at some of the mid 90's sale ads at shops you will get an idea
a lot of things that were older were still being sold and used mate  :daumenhoch:

Mid 90's race tyres were all about the following:

Comp III
GT Magabite
GT AA Pro

There were other options out there like Haro Comp III style tyres, and Mongoose had a few options as well. Redline even had their own stuff in the catalogues, but aside from putting it on their completes I didnt see many folks using them. The best of the lot were the first 3 I mentioned.
