Hey,

I am looking for rear MX tires (18"), and i know alot of companys put out great products. but i have tryed Tamers, and POSITIVELY hate them with a pastion. i was wondering if any companys make a MX tire in 4ply, or somthing heavyer then 2ply i know that they are heavyer but i need somthing that offers more support then just 2 ply.

Any comments or Advise will be greatly appreciated.
steve

Alot of people like the klaws and holeshots for mx.

I love my Razr MX rears. They are a tough MX tire. I too do not get along very well with Tamers.

i love my holeshot/tamer combo.works well for me.i will agree that on very hard packed stuff they dont hook that great.i only run the 11 in wide ones and dont care about the 9.5's

where did you find tamers for 16.50 each.we are a dealer for them and cant get them that cheap.

i run rear 18in tamers and they hook up pretty well for me, could be alittle better in the hard pack but its fine...strenght on the other hand sucks, i dont ride woods with them but i guess there strictly mx only because riding through the open dirt trails once and awhile beats them up. i am going with the 4ply klaws next..front and rear im looking forward to it:)

I have the Knarly 20" tires and they hook up but still slide very well. I think they are very good for motocross. Since you are looking for an 18" tire Kenda just came out with there Knarly MX which looks like it will be a good mx tire. If I was getting another set I would have to stick with the Knarly's.

Honda stock tires suck. They lasted me one day and cut them both at the track. Ohtsu=POS
