    Maxxis 18 x 6.5 x 8

    Not to intrude but we tried 18x11x8 and they are power robbers. We seen a big differnce with the 18x6.5x8 maxxis is a light tire lighter than you would ever expect they are an awsome MX tire as I seen them this wekend and picked one up and was impressed as I believe they weigh lighter than the snow hogs just my IMO.

    I am interested in this maxxis tire.

    Does anyone have a Snowhog, and the maxxis 940, or razer cross tires in a 18x6.5x8 rear?

    Can you weigh them all on the same scale so we know the actual weight difference?

    Thanks!

    The Maxxis M940 is a VERY light tire for its size. I had weighed them a few years back, but i forget what it was. We have been running them on my boys quads since 05. I stumbled on to them really. I saw them on the back of an Eton at my local dealer. It just so happened he had as set in stock so I bought them. I put them on Robbies Honda for the next race and we have run nothing else ever since.

    Are you refering to the new 18x8x8 ?

    I havent seen a set myself. Do you know what they weigh ?

    The big bike ones are just too heavy for a miniquad.
    Yes, The 18x8x8

    I don't know the weight, I had Big Daddy take the Maxxis' off and put the ITP's on at the track. The only change after the swap was better traction.

    We ran them on our Cobra 80/90 but they are too heavy and too much grip for the Cobra 70. Your 90's and 125's should have no problem, but I wouldn' recommend the ITP's on a CVT unless the track was very loose or muddy, the Maxxis may be better overall for a CVT.

    These are the tires we run on our 107 cc Honda. They were the best tires for the Honda. We run XC only not MX. They worked the best for XC and muddy conditions. The snowhogs just didn't hook up enough. Yes they do rob some HP, But they make up for it in traction and not getting stuck when every1 was stuck with the smaller tires.

    One might consider the Maxxis Cross's. They look alot like the Snowhogs but have X's on the side walls. They are a very good tire. Were gonna get an extra set mounted up for the Apex. There very light and don't steal HP. Just a thought.
