MX vs Grooved Radials

[Moto92]

Just wondering if you guys had a preference between a razr/holeshot 20'' mx tire and the radials for the front. Im ready for a new set up front and want to go down to 20'' so Im not so mismatched with my 18'' rears. I dont really know anything about the radials and wondered if they had any advantages over the others. I really thought the were more suited for a TT style race but not sure. I dont do any riding like that, just some rough, choppy mx tracks.

I have both the 19" radials and 19" holeshot mx fronts. And I like the radials way better than the holeshot mx's. The only time I run my holeshot mx's is when its muddy.

Grooved radials arnt used for tt, you are thinking of slicks. Grooved radials are the best for dry pack mx period. But they are horrible if you race when its muddy. Both tires have there atvantages but the radials only come in 19 inch i think. Also prices are alot more for radials, $70 for radials and 50 for mx holeshots. The radials will last longer but if you trail ride i would get the holeshots.

Holeshot mx's would suck for trails, you would blow them out in a second. They wear real fast too because of there soft compound.

I ment the regular holeshots if you ride any trails

[400exRacerX]

Yeah regular holeshots or razrs are good for trails.
