I like my razr's but dont really have any comparison to any of the others. I have tried turf tamers on another machine and did not like the pattern since they were cut. I ride mud, sand, dirt hardpack, and anything else in Wisconsin that I can find. Razrs are a great all terrain tire for what I do. I would like to try a holeshot just to tell the difference. my .02 Steve

i have cut turf tamers that i use for ice racing.ive never used them on anything else but they probably hook up great on any hard packed surface.

try some razrs. Even the knock off ones probably would not be bad. They are on ebay for like 50 bucks a set. If i needed some more I would try them just to see. If anything you have a new set for riding trails with alot of roads. Steve

I have turf tamers on mine, they hook up well in most everything but mud. Havent really had issues with them at all.

They do allow you to slide pretty well in turns too. My only annoyance is they dont hook up well in very slick stuff.

In my opinion Kenda knarleys kick razr and holeshots ***. Yes ive had all three. And I strictly ride trails and recreation. They have crazy good hook up and bite. Plus they are the cheapest of between the others and if im correct, i could be wrong, but i think they are also the lightest 6 ply sport tire. The tires just pull through anything, you dont have to worry about not having traction. You just cant beat em, thats what we run here in the kentucky hills anyways.

yah i agree... i would go with kendas... i have a set of holeshots and i ride in everything you can imagine.. they barely lasted me a couple months on top of that the tread ripped and broke off easily... kendas are my next tire

Razrs do well on a variety of different situations, my only complain was that they are pretty soft and wear quickly, i wouldnt go anywhere near rocks or pavement if you want to keep them for awhile. Ive never tried holeshots and turf tamers also work pretty well aside from mud.

my holeshots are kinda ****ed.. not to bad... but they could be better..

The razr 2's are to bulky looking
so i might just get razr.

i got holeshot xt or xc

Turf tamers SUCK on the mud or sand as they have horrible cleanout.

Hardpack and grass I understand that they do better.

i have turf tamers, and hate them. they hook good in grass, and they are good on hard surfaces, but as far as regular every day trails, i dont like them. loose dirt and mud they are horrible in.

ehh, kinda. i cant wait to were these things out so i can go out and by me some kendas or something

edit, i think they kinda look different on a sport quad, but that is just me. just not the traditional tire i am used to seeing.

i dont remember if it was the razr or the razr 2, but one of them really picks up the rocks. i had my head light broken from following someone with those tires.

i dont know much about the razrs, but i have heard a lot of good things about the holeshot, and also the kenda knarly. most people that came into my work(local shop) bought the knarlys or holeshots.

well i have ran all 3 of them .. the razors last a long time and are not bad for most terrain.. i have tamers on mine rite now and love them... i ride alot of sand and gravel and they do very well ... they are great in soft ot hard clay ... the hole shots seem to wear out faster than the razors... if i was going to rate the three tires it would be hard ti deside on the # 1 but i would say tamers # 2 would be razors and # 3 would be hole shot... but thats just how i feel about them...

I had razrs and hated them, once they wear down a little the cant hook up for shyt. I like my knarlys way better they are just as worn down and still work great.
