Anybody know the exact height of the Kenda Klaw rears in 4 ply rating? The specs say 18.5 " I think, but if thats accurate I dont want to lose 1" or so clearance in the back end of my quad. As it is with my stock tires I've got just enough clearance for the woods riding I do. Oh by the way i've got a 400ex. thanks!

well if you just have enough ground clearance now get 22" rears

If your a trail rider why the heck would you want to run MX tires??

20's or 22's in 6ply is the ticket..;)

I just took some measurements with these tires mounted and aired up.

20" Klaw 19.5"
20" Knarly 19"
22" Knarly 21.5"

I ride a little bit of everything and as it is havent yet had problems with my stockers, just getting worn out. I was considering either the klaws or the Razrs (in 4 ply). But if the tallest klaws you can get in 4 ply are under 20" I think Ill go with Razrs. Thanks you kindly for the quick reply. Oh ya arent the stockers 4 ply???

I may be completly wrong here but I'm pretty sure the tallest 4 ply klaws are 18.5".

Sorry bout the delay. I've only got a computer at work. mon-fri 8-5. Just got back here. Um arent 6 ply considerably heavier than 4? Like i said, the stock tires i have now havent given me any problems, (puncture wise), arent those 4 ply??
