I need your guys opinions/knowledge once again. For a while now i have been riding on crappy Bandit XC tires and stock tires up front. Stock wheels, but im getting tired of looking at them. I have found a deal on ITP Holeshot XCR tires mounted on ITP T9 polished wheels for $500. I mainly trail ride with it so the trails are usually a little muddy and dry at other times. Are these tires going to hook up good, or just spin like crazy? I cant ever get any traction with the tires i have now:mad: . Any info about these will be greatly appreciated!

XCR's are a good tire and will give great traction...way better than the bandits :devil: just be careful around rocks with those T9's

Check www.Rockymountainatv.com and compart your prices you have to the kits they offer. they ususlly have about the best prices around on wheel and tire kits. Another thing to take into consideration is shipping. If you have to pay for shipping it can kill you.

i like razrs cause they hook up great and are reasonably priced, i would also suggest kenda klaws or knarlys depending on what the terrain is...i would also mount them on a set of douglas .190 or something more strong

Many of the tires mentioned are great for your riding conditions.

As for the wheels, if you're not going to a beadlock everything else is a waste of money. Stock wheels are much stronger than than douglas or ITPs.

For a little over $600 you could get XCR's or HD's from rockymountain with ITP baja rims.

There are also deals for like $550 for the HD's on baja's on ebay.

how about the Kenda XC's? I have used holeshots for a while and want to try something else, the forward design looks like they would tear stuff up. Anyone have an opinion, im about due for some new rubber as well.
