I mostly ride loose woods trails, silt bank's and farm land's.

I was looking for a good set of rear tires!
I have riden w/people that have RAZER's and they dont get good traction where I ride.
any input on the KENDA KLAWs or KNARLYS, or ITP HOLESHOTS!

I used to have regular holeshots and they were great tires at the time. I rode them for about 3 1/2 years. During that time my buddy bought holeshot xcr's for his warrior and they were better yet. When I changed my tires, I went with Kenda Klaws XCR's. I checked the forum before I bought them. Not only are they cheaper but they really hook up. My buddy now has a raptor and he loves my tires too. I just don't know how long lasting the tread is.

Holeshot XCR's all the way. We've ran them on the type of terrain you described since they came out with great results. They still work well after the tread gets worn some.Some might disagree but they're our pick.

I ride trails a lot with lots of mud and loose dirt . I do a lot of riding in PA as well ( mount carmal ) and love the 6ply spyder tracks.:D

i ride in all types of terrain and i am not exaggerating when i say this.

i was AMAZED about how well the razr 2s worked.

there are some pretty nice hill climbs here and i literally thought the tires gave my 400 more power you can feel them hook up.

i will stick w/ razr 2s until i am proven to that there is a better tire which i dont think will happen, honestly.

well I got to see them in action KLAWS,MAXIS suretrak's,&RAZOR's

RAZORS-were an excellent tire except in damp area's and thick mud,great in loose dirt
MAXIS-were awsome unless you want to slide in corners,they grabed to much"everywhere"
KLAWS-were also excellent, but thick mud was also a problem, they did very well in loose dirt and cornering.

Im glad I got to see a diff assortment at the same time!

I m going with the KLAW XCR's for my needs I think they be the best!
hope this helps for anybody else wondering how these tires are!

Just ordered 20x11x9's $44.95e from Rockey MTATV , I think thats a good $ for these for a 6ply tire too.

i ran the razr'rs for a while then switched to the itp xcr03, what a differance it was amazing!!!
i ride alot of pits and alot of trails.
and when i climbed the same hills with the holeshots the front end was lifting unexpectedly at first then i got used to it and i love these tires they have far better traction in the same conditions than the razrs do
i think the holeshots are better
thats my .02$ worth
:p
