sir- go with the itp sandstars (all 4)... you'll be amazed. they hook up great, they slide great, and you'll be amazed at your steering response. sandstars are where it is at

Haulers!!

Hahahahahaah!! Sorry 250r4life, I had to do it after reading your paddles post where you got your panties in a knot cause of the hauler people. It's your opinion, and personally I've ridden on just about every paddle tire out there, and I wouldn't trade my Haulers for anything. And that's my opinion.

I have ridden with a couple guys with the Aerospeeds and they hate them. Very heavy and not much in the way of traction either. The other AMS tires like the straight paddles and V appear to be ok for an inexpensive tire.

Personally I do not like ITP sandstars...they weigh a ton...nice for durability. It is a molded tire...you are getting molded tire performance.

I am a fan of Skat-trak or Sand Tires Unlimited...and quickly falling in love with STU more each day!

if you wanna go in a straight line, yeah haulers are awsome. but if you like to free ride the dunes and not just sit there and go up hill all day. then haulers are a baaaaaaaddd idea. the suck when it comes to cornering. your going to fight your bike all day. everytime you get on the gas it's going to wanna pull straight. my sugestion to you is go with sand skate or snd star. something with a v in it. ams also makes a v shaped similar to the sand skate...
