Those are pure sport realtor's that came with the bike I've heard they don't make them anymore but mine are new.I'm excited to run them this winter in the snow but will switch to hole shots or turf tamers come spring

Both the Zilla and the LT250 look sweet!

I'm trying to find a cheap, used LT250 somewhere near me ... I just love them!

the tires are actually for hard pack too they say to flip them around like I did for snow/sand I rode em on trails a little during summer theyre not bad except for cornering I dont like them.Ill let u know what I think about them when we get our first snow storm here in Connecticut

I've had several Quadracers and I loved them. My '92 came with Realtor's on it when I bought it and I used them for hillclimbing. The last one I had was an '87. I bought it from my uncle and was bone stock and never been rebuilt, it even had the original rubber on it.

Looks good man! I always thought it'd be fun to find an older bike a rebuild it top to bottom
