It all depends on what type of riding you do. For normal trail riding, it's hard to beat the 20" XCR-03's. They hook up great and slide well too.

If you are wanting to get into MX, you will want to get 18's

i like to race on dirt flat track and like to race on a track with jumps and stuff like that..... not really goin to get into mx or anything..... i would like to get good hook up and slide like you said.....

[outlaw450r]

Maxxis Razr

I think the xcr03s are great if you are going to do some trail riding and some mx riding. They are 6 ply and the 20's are still low profile. Of course if you weren't gonna do any trail or woods riding then 18's would be what you want for mx. I am running mxr6 20's up front and mxr4 19's out back. I love the tires but I do quite a bit of woods riding and my tires get ate up pretty bad.

I agree with outlaw450.....Maxxis razr.Great tire for all around riding or racing.Available in 4 or 6 ply.I still see a lot guys running this tire in GNCC racing.

[shamisc]

I had the XCR's and loved them, But the new GNCC holeshots are F..king awesome!!!

[hangman]

Right now I'm running iRazrs and you can't beat em. They really hook up but you can still slide well plus I've never had a flat.

[wildheer]

hey hangman, i was thinking about the I's too. I know the advantage to those is that they ride smoother and the tread surface stays flatter on the ground because the sidewalls give to allow that to happen. My concern was that the sidewalls give too much and make the back end wobble in hard turns back and forth. how do they feel in those conditions?

[Prey]

i have a set of IRazr's, they are the best tire i have run in the rear... problem with them is they are a soft compound tire, if you ride hard packed and you ride often you can find yourself going through 2/3 sets a year.

I will bring them to the races, run them if the track is wet, if it is dry, i will run my ITP XC's, Maxxis Razr's or even the stock 450R dunlops.

If you are looking for a good solid tire that will last a while, i would look at the XCR

absolutely a good tire, but for the kind of riding he said he did, they are heavy and a lot more tire than he needs

did u say that the mxr4 19's aren't good for trail riding.........there just good for mx.......i don't do that much of trail riding anyway........i like to jump and flat track.

[y3llow400ex]

razrs all the way. hook awsome but you can still slide them.

[TarheelRedRider]

I run the i-razrs for the woods and love them. I tried about every tire out there for sport quads and these to me are the best by far.

[450rboy]

well what about the kenda claws. they are a awsome tire and i love them. i have had the xc and the mx ones and the mx's do work a lil better on the track because they are softer and i had those in 18". i had xc 20" tires to and they works great and the xc ones last for a long time. i had mine for over a year the one time and there was still half tread left on them.

i ain't sayin either that the razors or hole shots or any other tire ain't good. they are all good tires. i have had hole shots and they worked awsome for when i had my other 4 wheeler. but i like the claws more than anything now. and there cheap too

I go through everything with them with no problems, I have never got stuck with them, for the track they kick ***. I would run them forever if they had 4 or 6 ply.

I have Itp xcr 20's on the rear of my bike and I use it for mx and trail riding and they are awesome. :D

do the Itp xcr get good traction on take off........ and do they wear a lot ridin in the woods....

[KrazyKeith]

the xcr's are probly alittle better out of the hole than the Klaws but I have to vote for the klaws. I had them on for 3 months now and they still look new. for the $ klaws are best If you got lots of dough buy the xcr's

[B450r]

when a tire is 2 4 or 6 ply does that mean how strong the tire is or what
