looking for some advice on what tires to run in the sand on the rear of my 250r. only things done to the engine is a mx port (which i think has hurt my power in the sand), a 38mm a/s carb and a trx 5 pipe and a lot of compression. this weekend i ran some 20x10x10 8 paddle haulers, and had trouble getting the quad to launch hard in 2nd off the line, i switched to a 13 tooth front sprocket and still had a issue but it was alot better. im thinking a 21" tire with a 12/38 combo might help me out as i could barely get into 5th by the end of the strip, this way i can pull 5th for a longer time and it should help me outta the hole. my question is, would i be better off with 21x12x8 10 paddle haulers or the 21x12x8 8 paddle extreme haulers for my combo, im mainly concerned about which one would be lighter and work better on my combo
