Well My ITP Sand Stars are wearing out and it's time for looking into new rear sand tires. I have a 400ex with some nice mods. I ride in the open sand and sand trails.

I'd like to know about any experience(s) you've PERSONALLY had with any of these tires....

1. Rooster V blade.

2. Rooster straight blade.

3. Skat-trak Hauler

4. Skat-trak Extreme grip.

5. Skat-trak Desert Storm

6. Skat-trak Ripper.

7. Skat-trak Glider

8. Skat-trak Edge.

9. Aero Speed

10. Sidewinder V

11. Sand Snake.

12. Kenda Trekker

13. Kenda Gecko

14. Kenda Rear

15. GBC Paddle Master

I already know the Sand Skate II's are junk.

14. kenda rear?

If your talking about kenda claw 18 inchers they hold up good but after about 25% tread wore off em i couldn't lift the front up to easy cause the tires wanted to spin.

I've had expierence with the kenda trakker 20-12-10 rear, and 21-11-8 kenda gecko. The gecko's are ligher the the trakkers. the trakkers made it where I could slide and do 180's and donuts, but to me they seem alil heavy for my 300ex, and being 10in rims. If I ever get sand tires again. I'm going with skat trak gliders(6 paddle) or skat trak edge with as less paddles as i can get.

I doubt he is talking about 18in mx tires. If he is talking about sand tires.

Number 14 should read Kenda Dune Runner Rear.
Sorry.

3. Skat-trak Hauler, its the best sand tire ever made. The price is a little more but they last a long time and work so well.
