If your into bikes no, if youre expecting an atv based mag then yes:p

I would assume they would start returning subscriptions by now, its been several months since they closed up shop.

I'm beginning to think Dirt Wheels may be heading down the same road. Their mags have been getting thinner and thinner and, a lot less interesting things to read about.

They, also, seem to have less quad projects and more stock quad reviews, which I find boring.

Thus, why I have not renewed my subscription.

They didn't notify you that they were going out of business? Like Pappy said, the news was out about 2 months ago. If they never notified you that the magazine went under then that's honestly wrong of them to accept your renewal money and send you a bike mag instead.

MAaudio, most people on this site agree that Dirt Wheels sucks for the most part. But I'm sure times have been tough of them ever since QUAD magazine was introduced. I haven't read Dirt Wheels in years so I have no idea how bad the issues are...but maybe you'll see some improvement since they have a chance at capturing all of QUAD mags share of the market.

Sad. QUAD> Dirt Wheels.

I hate the same BS in every dirt wheels. They just take a new boring stock bike and give you the dimensions.
The latest "Sand tires buyers guide" was pages of weaksauce...... :ermm:

not such a bad thing really. sure the chassis stuff dosent mean much but the engine stuff is still the same, and the bike mags get way more technical than the quads from what i have seen. all the quad mags acted like all the readers were beginers

I got my final issue too. It was a whoppin' 15 pages and 12 of the 15 were advertisements. Its too bad really. I hope Dirt Wheels stays afloat. I don't think they are in any real danger- they've got enough loyal subscribers (myself included) to keep them rolling. It was funny..when we all got that last Quad mag...they said that for the remainder of your subscription they would replace it with either Transworld MX or Motocross mag (i can't remember which)...however I am already a subscriber to those magazines too.

Bummer deal.

I thought it was interesting the YAMAHA Grizzly was flawless except for the height of the foot pegs in the last issue :rolleyes:



I guess the reason I haven't gotten my refund back from cancelling it 3 months ago is because Q4AD went out of business.
