I own a 89 250R That is modified for Mx riding and my tires I have know are really bad I would like to know what peoples opinions are that have them and if they would by them again. Thanks

I think the turf tamers are better because of the price. The holeshots are more and wear just as fast. I will get the turfs from now on with the holeshot mx front.

I highly recommend MX's all the way around.

Holeshot Mx's are probably close to the best thing you can get for dry motocross conditions. You shouldn't use them unless you have shocks, or like riding bulls instead of quads. I personally am looking for a better rear mx tire for wet conditions.

holeshots for muddy or loose stuff....tammers for hard pack

actualy holeshot mxs are the number one tire for hardback...even holeshot claims it

holeshot.who cares if a company claims to be best...if titan claimed holeshots were better than i would belive it

they are a reallly soft compund and they grip well to hard surfaces...when i park mine in the garage over night the moisture bounds thetread to the floor so when i push it out you can hear it popping and pelling off the floor...im not saying just that they claim it,...,i just put that as a bonus

I've seen alot of guys running the 9 inch turfs bust their beads, and they had champion beadlock rims,,,,never seen anyone have problems with holeshots MX version..I've personally never run turftamers and probably never will..:huh

I've not had any problems with mine,,,and remember,,MX tires are for tracks Only,,not for trail riding or anything else,,,,the ply is not very punture resistant..Not to many thorns, nails, or debri on tracks like there is on trails..

the 9 in tires i think should only be run with beadlocks...i never got so many holes in any tire than i did in my holeshot mx's...there good tires but i think only in looser stuff....never had a problem with tammers but i don't run them much cause it's all loose soil around here
