17" Rear tyres

Hello All,
I need a couple of 17" rear tyres for my Huskies.
I have a WR390 and an XC430 both in need of rear rubber.
The only thing I've been able to find on the web is a Dunlop farm tyre.
What do others use?

Dunlop 606 is what I use on my DR650 for on/off road. It's a good all rounder

Dunlop K190 is also worth looking out for. Best bet is to ditch the 17 inch rims and fit 18 inch wheels. Great tyre choice then available.
