is the Kenda Knarly a good tire? i ride mainly trails and wooded areas on my 250ex. if i get them they would be the 6-ply, 22-inch ones. i thought about the razrs or klaws but they seem a bit too low profile for my little 250. any ideas on what might work well?

i would try the 21 inch knarly. the hook up very well. for fronts the 21 or 22 inch klaws do pretty good. i thought they felt simiar to a holeshot, just a tad grippier tho.

my bro has had both the 20'" and 22" knarly's/ They get unbelievable traction in clay and, well pretty much anywhere. The only place they suck is on ice. My holeshots go better in ice than the knarlys but they do better everywhere else. The only thing about 22's is they are a true 22 and made his 300EX feel top heavy.

Awesome, best tire I've ever run! I was even running the 22" ones when I won Sparta.

Mine are awesome! I got 20" rear ones. Best sport mud tires i've ever rode on. But they suck on asphalt or concrete, spin like crazy. I wouldnt recommend a 22" for a 250 tho. Will probly bog it down quite a bit.

lol I know but to get to one of field I got a track set up on you have to ride about a 1/2 mile down the road to get to it. I usally like to give it hell down the road to let my neighbor know I'm going down there (not to piss him off!). I also was tryin out my swaybar the other day and i noticed they didnt hook up as good have my holeshots.

These tires are a good chioce for the price. I have ran 20s with 22" Klaws in front for almost a year. The tread wear is good but I have cut the side wall on both fronts and one rear in the rocks. I have been running them with plugs in the side wall but I plan on going back to racing so I've got to replace them.
