Ok I think I hae finally decided to try sand paddles. i ride in jersey where almost everywhere is sand. Im gonna get just rears and use the stock fronts, but my question is are my stock wheels ok to use for them or do i really need to get different rims?

stock wheels are just fine. What I like about mine are that they have a rolled lip. Some aftermarket rims do not and will bend easily. No you dont need different rims. stock are fine for sand

there is sand in jersey, sacro, glidden, port elizabeth pits, Forked River, Beach Head and there is a alot more. But all of those places are flooded with cops and you need to watch your *** every minute and if they don't get you riding, they are sitting at your truck waiting for you to return, with $2-3g's of tickets.

Umm right i ride these places and have been using maxxis razr 2's and I razrs with no problems at all. Paddles are not needed.

obviously paddles are not needed because I ride there with bald stockers, but it is sand and I was thinking of giving it try. It seems like the guys that run with paddles get around good. My other option was actually going to be razr 2's.....how do you like them?

if it is sand you might want to consider the Irazr rears. they have a more open tread and will float over the sand easier then the razr2 which will dig down a little bit more. The i razr's work awesome in the sandy tracks that I occasionally race on
