Allright i posted this about a year ago, but never bought any, and i know tires have changed, so i posted again. I think i talked my dad into going down to Little Sahara OK this summer sometime. I want to get some rear paddles for my 300. I'll have an exhaust, air filter, and rejet by then, if that would make a difference. What paddles should i run? I'm gettin them on Douglas .125's whatever they are. I'm leaning more toward straight blades, for better acceleration and climbing ability, i've got plenty of size to throw around to assist with turning. ;) What do you reccomend?

Thanks!

i dunno botu tires but i dont think a 300ex can power 22inch paddles in the sand so i would sya get 20s there and maybe a 6 or 8 blade paddle

I think an 8 paddle might be too much. Ya, i forgot to say i was getting a 20" rear. I think the razr fronts would be good, since they have like a rib running down the middle. Any suggestions?

I thought that at first, but the paddles are huge on them, and might bog my 300 down too much...

The ITP sandstars worked good on the warrior I ran them on. 20" and I'd reccomend dropping down to the stock gearing on the 300.;)

I run 20x11x8 Gecko's 8 paddle on my 300 & our blaster, got a GOOD deal on them so thats what we run, my 300 has a pipe,filter,cam,overbore,rockers & it got pretty hot after awhile, I ran Razr 2 fronts w/ them & they were AWESOME int he sand!!!!! Our stocker fronts don't do too bad thats what we run on our 400ex.
My brother ran the razr2's on the front of his HIGHLY modded 250R & didn't like them cuz they tried to "lift" @ high speeds :):devil: but on a 300 NO PROB
Good luck :)

i run hualers on my 300. i love them cuz i can still get my back end loose to do doughnuts and they give really goods traction, but ive tried sand stars and they get the job done to so i guess its just your preference.
