Try rockymountainatvmc they have decent prices in my opinion or get a set of gbc's they make a tire for every kind of terrain I'm pretty sure or what I do find someone in your area that races pro they usually get rid of there tires after a race or two and sell them dirt cheap

I usually get my tires from either rockymountainatvmc or motosport. Also, if you go to some races or know sponsored riders, you can get some great deals on slightly used tires.

Motosport has some tires that's priced i think at 50 bucks apiece for the rears. I think their "Artrax" and they have good reviews.

I have a front and rear set of those and they work great on my KFX450 and the 400. The rears hook really well going straight and throw bricks of mud and dirt, will hold a line in a corner about as well as a Razr 2. Do some diagonal tire siping and these things really, really hook. The fronts perform slightly better than standard ITP Holeshots.

I'd definitely recommend them.

Yep, I'll be getting them next. I don't like my razrs I have cause they punctured kind of easily. And it's a sidewall puncture so it's hard to fix.

I actually lost an Artrax front the first time out with a similar issue. Given, I was riding the Little Coal River part of the Hatfield McCoy trail systems and it was extremely rocky. I put an inch and a half gash in the sidewall. That said, my friends YFZ/X on stock tires gashed the sidewall on each of his tires. Another friend on an LTR with ITP Holeshot HD's suffered two gashed sidewalls. Finally, we had a Honda 450R with Razr2 fronts and I-razr rears also suffer a front and rear sidewall gash and two of the three bikes we were with also had punctures. All of the punctures happened on trail 52. Not sure if we ran over a trap or just got unlucky, it seems to be a bit more than a coincidence..

I'm confident in saying the tires hold up as well as the major brands. I replaced that front and have had no issues since (9 months). They really are a great investment for the amount of money spent.

This doesn't really help the thread any but I priced some tires and rims for my Rancher I just bought over at the local dealer today and they priced them at $850 with all the discounts they could give me. I went on Motosport and it was only $760. So don't go to your local dealer unless you work there or get an insane discount. I go there all the time and get a pretty decent discount (I think 15% or so) and it still doesn't help on big purchases like that when compared to online.

I run the Razr 2 front, Razr 4ply rear combo and couldn't be happier. I am running the 21" fronts and can't tell you how much it improved the handling. I read a lot of opinions before I decided on tires and going from stock to this combo, is night and day. I also added CF1 hipers. Sure the tire rim combo is heavier, but the handling made me faster and I really didnt feel any noticeable difference related to the additional weight. Buy them you will be happy.
