Is anyone running these tires on there 450r or any quad for that matter. I run Razr 2's now and love them for the most part. They sometimes spin out and loose traction too easily. (especially on hill climbs and when you are trying to start on a hill. I was wondering if anyone tried the Holeshot hd yet??? A comparision would be nice. I do know that the HD's are heavier.

The HD's wont have the problem of spinning out....but are you going to run them on a 250R?

They go great in a straight line but leave a little to be desired in the turns. They'll wash out to easily on hard pack. The plus is they're bomb proof. If my team mate can't bust one than nobody can. He won the overall yesterday with no problems and I got 3 flats,it's usually the other way around.

they are for my 450R. I am going to try the I razrs on the R. The razr 2 break loose in 4th gear.

We ran ours on a pair of 450Rs,traction was awesome. The softer the ground the better,if you ride mostly hard pack go with a set of Holeshot XCRs.

Why didn't ITP make a front that is equally deep? Razr 2's rule IMO.:D

I was going to ask about the XCR's, they area nice looking tire. Are they 4 ply or 6?

They're six ply rated,they wear down fast but still work well even at half tread.

I don't know a whole lot about the Kenda's. You might want to ask Jeff,he runs them on his pro GNCC ATK with great results. If your talking about MX you almost need two sets of tires. I'd go with ITPs both ways(MXRs and XCRs),just my opinion,I've been an ITP fan for years with good results myself:)

Same here I always ran ITP till I got my 450r and I put razr2s on it and its night and day. I love them and will never go back. I just ran a mud race saturday and they hooked up awesome.

I've never ran a set of tires that were as precise and confidence inspiring as the Razr 2's. I'll now gamble on lines that I would cringe at before, and the best part is the Razr 2's pull me through and get me a pass.:macho Great job Maxxis!:cool:
