What is the best tire in the front for G.P. I never had any complaints with the stockers, but what is best to replace them with?
I did a past thread search and it didn't help much, mostly talked about rears.
What is gonna stick in the corners the best w/o pushing, and not grab ruts?
Do I go with the Maxxis rzrs, holesot mx or what?

My one buddy did the same, and he went from the stockers to this setup and loves it. He did not like how the 22" Holeshot XC's and the 23" Holeshot XCT's pushed when he tested them on other atv's. He really liked his stockers too, but has no regrets going with the 20" MX's...... And he has run a Hare Scramble with this setup, and beat me!!!!!:grr (I didn't run my 20" fronts at that time, or I'm sure I would have beat him!!! LOL):D

Good luck!

I have a friend who is switchingfrom the holeshots to the razr fronts on his raptor and should be able to check them out this sunday and will post what the changes are.

PS. So Marlin thats what the problem was:devil

G.P. is general purpose. I don't race or anything I just want a good replacement for the stock tires.
What are the benifits of dropping to a 20 inch front tire?

loosing ground clearance, go with the 22x7x10 razors 6-ply, they'd work for anything

I got razors, 21x7x10's, from Les Schwab for $53 each mounted. That was cheaper than any place on line, and I didn't have to pay shipping:D
Once I started checking prices it was a no brainer, the Razors were at least $20 cheaper.

They (local store) don't stock too many choices, but they can get all the big names, and stockers too. Now if we could just get them to give the same road hazzard warranty they give on all the other tires:D
