Recently, we featured Panaracer’s new colo(u)r options for Panaracer Gravelking and Gravelking SK tyres. Photos of tyres is one thing, but photos of tyres mounted to wheels ideally paired with a bike is much better. Click this link to see the original post with full specs and anticipated release date of Panaracer’s new colored tyres.
Olive / Brown Sidewall Gravelking SK Tubeless Tyres
Fitted to the Niner MCR 9 RDO review bike, these tyres are a near-perfect match!
Wheels are the FSE G40/30X wheelset, currently under review. Tyre sealant by Orange Seal Cycling.
Above, the Fox AX suspension fork, much better than a goofy pogo stick and with true rebound control.
Mustard / Brown Sidewall Gravelking SK Tubeless Tyres
Fitted to the T-Lab X3 Titanium adventure bike, the Mustard with brown sidewall Panaracer Gravelking SK tubeless tyres contrast nicely, particularly when fitted to my BERD Spoke / ENVE G23 wheelset.
Unfortunately, this color won’t stay looking this good once you take them onto your local dirt and gravel road, but they clean up pretty well.
Purple / Brown Sidewall Gravelking SK Tubeless Tyres
Fitted to the T-Lab X3 Titanium adventure bike, the Purple with brown sidewall Panaracer Gravelking SK tubeless tyres may favor a darker colored paint livery, but I believe the tyre color plays well with the deeper rims of the Boyd Cycling wheelset (this wheelset is no longer produced).

If one is hoping to mount any GravelKing to A WTB KOM iHoop, good luck!
I found them almost impossible to mount on a i25 hoop, to the point I wouldn’t be able to remove it on a ride if I needed to do so.
Sounds like a problem with the wheel, not the tyre. Not the first time I’ve encountered a difficult wheel.
I tried the orange on my Lynskey, sadly it did not look good with the titanium finish
