i HIGHLY reccomend Douglas wheels 8x8 rear beadlocks. and ive been testing some off brand tires from motosport called artrax 18x10-8 and I LOVE THEM they are very awesome tire and hook really well. no slide outs in corners and they put the power to the ground and at $39each tire i will continue to use these as long as they sale them. i have 2 sets sittin in the garage waiting to be put to use.

good choice i pick then over razr mx, turf tamers, or any hard compound tire. if you have money to throw out the window then yellow lable razrs would be good but really soft and also holeshot mxr6 tires which are soft and u wouldnt get many rides out of them as compared to the artrax. but as far as front tires go with razr cross or razr mx yellow labels

yea h got razr mxs on the front now and razr mx orange/yellow on the back but i think everyone is running stuff like that a nd the only way to go faster is to try something difftent to try and get an edge.....wat psi do you run in the backs

8-10 in the rears. i like more pressure because it gives me a little extra so i can corner faster. everytime i ran lower psi i would grip alot more and in corners id tip on 2 wheels slowing me down. in muddy or wet track conditions ill lower it to 5-7lbs
