Anyone running the ARTRAX MX Tires?

Wondering about the "concave" design and if the tire wears-out weird, or how the handling is, etc?

The look good and are a great priced tire, looking for anyone with experience with them - Thanks!

once you put air in that tire i would say that just about all of the concave center would come out. but i have had no experience with that tire so i dont know.

I got the MotoSport catalog(holiday) today. They have that tire listed for $45.99 for the 20x11x9.

They look like a good pattern for loamy conditions. Im positive they would not be concave once you fill them with air. great deal also, id try em out!

they work good on the dry dirt. like turf tammers but on a wet track they suck.. good tires. i had the 18s in my opinion the holeshots are the best or the maxxis mx for wet tracks

thanks for the input.

it says the concave is designed to optimize traction in corners, IE the tire flex`s and bites vs. sliding......they look like a good universal cheap tire though....oh the decisions!

I ran them on my 450R and they did pretty well. I have run Holeshots, RAZR iMX, Turf Tamers, and Hoosiers too. The Artrax tires are harder rubber and seem to wear really well. The tire doesn't look concaved when mounted and aired up. I have tried them in all conditions and the are good all around for the price. I think for the money you can't go wrong.

ive read reviews on them and had a couple buddies thats used them and they all say better than razr mx but not the yellow label razrs of course those are really soft. but these artrax u can run 2 diff directions and it changes the hardness of the rubber, 1 way is for hard pack and the other is for medium/soft dirt.

as soon as GTT sends me my shock i will be out testing them and gettn to ride since my bike rebuild
