Need RIDERS Input on this tire

[300exTJjeeper]

OK RIders,

THis will be my first set of paddles that I'll be buying, I have been searching the threads for inputs, comments, and suggestions. And I have came up with these tires.

I plan on getting the 20x11x8 on .160 rims for my 300ex and then gear up to 14t Front for the difference in Tire size. Then when I go trail riding I'll throw back on my stock tires and then swicth back to the stock 13t, until I can get some 20" holeshots or soemthing down the road.


But what do you guys thing about the tire I want. I want a all around trail tire for the dunes. I like to make sharp turns and stuff liek that, but some hill climbing too of course.

let me know because I want to put this order in on Sunday so I'll be ready for next week.

Thanks in Advance

THere website is still in the making, I guess. Is there any other way to get a price quote. I mean the old website is really hard to find and look up stuff.

Maybe you can point me in the right direction.

Also how much did you get yours for.

I have those on my banshee.....They worked great for me.

To run thoose on the 300ex you will probly need to run the 13t front. On a blaster we have had good luck running 5psi in them to make them spin eaiser. If you are having troble turning them over just add more air.

[300exTJjeeper]

Thanks for the help and comments,

SO run the 13T, because that is stock right now. Well I'll try them both just order me 14T because later on I'll get some
20" Holeshots or something for the trails because that will be dropping 2" from teh stock 22" donuts that I have right now


I'll post a review up next week after I get back from Glamis on the 8th. Hopefully I won't get to excited, heheh

[Str8Wicked]

We run them on my uncle's 300 and they run fine witih stock gearing. I would drop a tooth up front thou just for a little extra push.

I run there on my 400 as well....

[300exTJjeeper]

hey there wicked. Question about the gearing. I am already goign to be dropping tire size on the quad with the new paddles. SO that in return will be lower the gear ratio to more torque and less top end. I run a 13 stock right now.
So with the new paddles it's 2" down from stock tire size, SO I should leave it at that because it will give me more power and less top end, I think if I drop another tooth to 12t I think it will have even less top eand and will take forever to go places, heheh


Well I'll order the 14t and play with them this weekened

[300exTJjeeper]

I will have a post of my review on the 13t and 14t when I get from GLamis this weekened. Thanks for additonal info.

[Str8Wicked]

Well if the 300 is stock with a 13t I would leave it. I think 12t is too low. The 14T would be one higher than and probably give you more top end.

I run those tires on my ATC 250R....I like them, just enough grip to shoot up the hills, but plenty of sliding power too. Also they're cheap, and Light weight, which means that you'll have more power with less unsprung weight. Now for my 400ex, I don't run paddles in the dunes. I ride with straight knobbies, and I love it. there isn't a hill out there I couldn't climb, and it's so much fun to be sliding around out there with out bogging from the pull the paddles put on your

bike.http://exriders.com/vbb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=43563

this is us, with no paddles.....

[quadrcr87]

[RuffRyder400ex]

I know somone whos runs them on his banshee and they are awsome.

[Str8Wicked]

On the 400 it will run without paddles but is not as fun as when you have paddles.. i run the sharks on my 400 with mohawks in the front... I dropped a tooth in the front...
