Anyone have a strong opinion about Kenda Klaws vs. Knarlys. Read good things on here, one guy not a fan of Knarlys for some reason. For the rear of a 400ex, going with 20x11-9 , leaning towards the XC Klaws. Live in the southwest, can be on an alpine trail one day and the low desert the next. NOT racing.

hello

my buddy has kenda knarlies. we live in northeastern ohio and do alot of trail riding on loose and packed dirt and do some mx'ing. i have razrs and when i hopped on his bike i felt not to much difference in the traction. the knarlies on his 250ex look kinda funny being 22's they look big. but there great. hope this helps

hahaha - that was probably me. I have some hate issues against those tires. They are horrible. Imagine taking some stock tire off the back off an old 200s trike and putting them on a 400EX and that is what it is like. I was litteraly afraid to go over 50mph because the backend was bouncing around so bad. I hear the Klaws are actually much better. I was running the 22" Knarly's

I have had the knarly's on for about two and a half months now and I love them. We do a lot of trail riding and they are one tuff tire they hook up great and don't weigh much more than stock and are reasonably priced also 6 ply. Mine are the 20's I have had no problem with them bouncing at full speed. Great tire in my opinion!!;)

I HAVE THE KLAWS, THEY ARE SWEET. GOOD TRACTION IN A VARIETY OF TERRAIN, AND GOOD TREAD LIFE SO FAR. I RIDE ON ALOT OF HARDPACK TRAILS AND ROCKY AREAS, AND FOR SOME REASON I CAN'T KEEP MY QUAD OUT OF MUD HOLES. :devil I HAVE NO COMPLAINTS WITH THE KLAWS YET. JUST MY 2 CENTS...
