Whats some opinions on the dunlap radial 20-6-10, LTR stockers?

That and are the GBC xrex any good? I need a harder tire for the asphalt i ride somtimes. I want to stay 20/20, But the xrex is a 21" and might give it a try. I can get a set of full xrex's for under $300. But need a harder tire than my mx6r's.

Just curious on whats out their on the cheaper side or what the best free ride/trails and some mx tires are. Thanks for any help

sti makes a good xc and a mx tire, both had good reviews in the magazines. riding on the road will kill any atv tire.

Unless they are cheap, I dont want to melt 1/2 the tread off around town.

I understand any atv tire will wear quick on road, I think im just going to try the GBC XREX tires. Ill have my old gncc's for spares that look semi similar and a thick tire. The xrex tires look decent and i hope they run small. The fronts look decent enough.

the x-rex's wear really well and are a nice 6 ply. mine ran a bit small, the front 21's are actually 20's and the rear 20's are actually 19''. i dont really know if they corrected this or not. but i am really happy with them. i did groove mine and it really help with inline traction. plus they were like $250 for the set from kg motorcycles

Sweet, Thats what i wanted to hear and hopefully they didnt correct it lol. I dont mind the sizes, But i do like a smaller front tire. The 6ply also caught my eye. Never popped a 2ply front but a thicker tire will help.

Ill look up kg and see what their prices are. Thanks a bunch.

If your looking for a smaller tire i wouldn't go with an xrex rear. Fronts look good, but i just don't like the look of the 11" wide rears.

If I had it to do over again, I'd of went with GBC x-rex fronts and a 20x10x9 rear. Maybe an actual rzr 1, or CST ambush.

Well i ordered a set to give them a try. I read alot of reviews and the only bad opinions were from people who value vanity and maxxis on the sidewall. Other than that people who ran both said they are one in the same.

Got a full set of 21-7-10/20-11-9 for $290 shipped.

I was also told they wont be making these under the name X-REX anymore, A company got butt hurt on the trademark. I think he said the new replacement will be XC master?

yeah somebody apparently threatened to sue about the name. xc master is the new name, they are almost identical to razr 2's.
