hey i am looking at new tires for my 400 ex. i think i want the razr 20x6x10 for the fronts, and the kenda klaw 18x10.5x8 for the rear. i would get the holeshot mx's all around but they are all 2 ply, and i still want to be able to do trails w/o getting flats. the razr mx fronts and kenda klaws are all 4 ply. do u guys think this would be a good combo? Tim Farr uses the klaws, but has the holeshots in the front.

Turf Tamers in 4ply. They are the best. Groove them and they will rip any other tire apart in MX. And I run mine on trails too. And
they work great.

I know ppl are gonna yell at me for this but Turf Tamers are the only way to go. A better tire for a shorter price. I say that is a pretty easy decision.

i want small tires, i know razr and holeshot make 6 ply, but not in 18's, and the razrMX is one of the very few mx tires that are 4 ply. and i don't want to have to groove turf tamers. i guess what i want is mx tires that will still be good in the trails. but does anybody think the razrMX and kenda klaw mx is a good combo, has anybody had experience with the kenda klaws, or the razr mx fronts?

I hope you have good armor on the bottom of your bike. Your going to need it trail riding with those tire sizes. Those are way too small. Good luck to ya:D

my dad has fast trekkers and i don't really like them, the rubber compound is too hard, i spun out on my track with the trekkers, i never have with my razr's. i would get razr's again but their 18 inch is only 2 ply. and i wanna try something new so i was thinkin the kenda klaws.
