opinions in tires for the mini....

[QuadJunkies]

Anything out there for the mini Quads besides Holeshots? I cant seem to find a good front tire for my sons fronts for his Eton Viper:confused: Im trying to stick with a all around terrain tire rahter than a go kart/slicks for the track. Any ideas? I got him all new Douglas rims and Fast Trekker rears for Christmas and am still debating on front tires. Thanks for any suggestions......:)

You may want to try www.hetrickracing.com. I don't know if they offer anything besides holeshots or not but if they do I would think they can hook you up. Let us know if you do find anything else. I'll be getting some for our scrambler 90 in the spring. Good luck!

check at a lawn a garden store, many of the snow blowers and such have the same sized tires on them. I know that i've seen holeshots, mini sur-traks and a few other variations on different machines. Just a thought.

Tina try this website, ww.muellertires.com they are good to work w/ & have alot of different tires, paddles,knobbies,garden ect. this is where we got our blaster rear flattrack tires & Ron's Razr's the shipping isn't too bad either I think I paid $20 for 4 tires shipped:)

Just a thought. thats what I was told. Actually I would like the same size as the Hoeshots, but would like a dif tread pattern to try. Anyone familiar with Kenda Pathfinders? We have them on his rear right nwo, I was thinking of maybe running them on the front since they are so small. They have a slight V pattern in the center. Ill have to try and find a pic of it and who you all...... THANKS DIRTMOMMA! Ill check it out.........:) Weird....... the Hoelshot is THE ONLY tire that size I can LITERALLY find..:huh :confused:

Check www.rockymountainatv.com or www.treaddepot.com
We run Titan Fast Trekkers front and rear on our TRX90.
The fronts work pretty good except that that do catch the ruts a little worse than a more rounded tire.

RMATV dont have anytihng but holeshots in stock. Thanks for the links guys a gals!

I have heard that Les Schwab had good deals on ATV tires, I usually buy me auto tires there. I asked them once about ATV tires and they gave me the MSRP:( I also went there to have some tire only dismounted and they charged me $10 each:( I did got there to have one pluged and it was no charge.

I guess it depends on who you get for a sales person.....:confused:

They have been so good in the past for sponsoring us that I decided to spend some $$$ with them this time.:) We got the Fast Trekker rears and the rims from them

[foleyit]

My friend and I bought two used LT80s for our kids. Both needed rims and tires bad, and purchased completely different front setups.

I went with Fast Trekkers front and rear. The fronts were on douglas rims 8x7, tire size 20x7x8, and the rears douglas rims 8x9.5, rear tire size 13x9.5x8.

Now my buddy has the same rears as I do, but his fronts are different. He went with a douglas rim size of 10x7, with some holeshots 20x7x10.

There was a huge difference in the both of the front tire setups. The Trekker had tread on the tire that will outlast the life of the bike. They are very meaty tires and of course a lot of sidewall. While, the 10" front rim and holeshots look a lot nicer, and are shorter in height due to the tread on the Trekkers.

We bought our rims and tires from http://rockymountainatv.com

I hope that this helps you out.

[Woodsrider]

Tina, can you show me a pic of the fast trekkers you have on the Kasea. The first upgrade to our new skyhawk will be a real set of tires. Just not sure which ones yet.

that is where I bought the Razrs I have on the front, they were cheaper than online, after you add shipping, and the mounting was free. The Razrs on the rear I bought mounted on ITP .190 wheels from Chapperal, I think. But I did that to get a set of wheels to mount paddles on. ( Don't ask, too much to type). The paddles I got at Cycle gear on sale.
