what tire and what size???

Posted by: lilredridenwood

i am using 20x10x10 ten paddle haulers on itp c series rear and sand star fronts. I love the haulers and with a 13t front sprocket you can get kick *** hole shots and on hill climbs they rule. Use about 7-8 pounds of air in the rear and they will bite killer!

I've got sand stars and really like them so far. I think the 9 paddle haulers are a bit to much unless you have a lot of engine work done. It is easy to get to much paddle especially on a 4 stroke. Also I've found it is better to run more like 3psi in the tires. They are probably working well with 7-8psi of air in them for you because they bite to much with less air and work better with more air on your bike. I've seen time and time again where someone will put the biggest paddles on a bike they can get thinking they will get more traction and it ends up boggin the bike down to much. Especially on the smaller bikes but even on 400EX and such. But hey to each his own!

YA TOO MUCH PADDLE IS EASY TO DO. I DID IT FROM GOING FROM A 22-11-10 8 PADDLE SKAT TRAK EXTREME, TO TRYING A 10 PADDLE ON A BUILT, TOURQE MASTER V-FORCE AND IT WAS SLOWER. NOT BY A LITTLE, ALOT I WAS BEATING STOCK V'S BYE 10 QUADS. THEN WENT DOWN TO 3-4. SO BE WISE WITH CHOICE. I AM GOING TO GO WITH 20-10-10 8 PADDLE EXTREME. SHOULD BE JUST RIGHT ONCE I GET HRC KIT, PIPE AND OTHER MODS DONE
