Im looking at either the 18 inch Klaws, or the 18 knarlys...i rode on the Klaws once and i really dont like them... anybody race with knarlys? how do they do compared to holeshots?
thanks

I have been doing research on them, because I think that I going to be running kenda tires next season. BUT, everyone that i have talked to says that the kenda tires are pretty good. Alot of people like the way they hook up and ware. So I think they are just as good as holeshots but alot cheap...

i use klaw fronts and knarly rears and like the combo alot. i have never rode on holeshots so i cant really compare for you. i do know that with the knarly rears, i was beating more experienced racers off the line that were on the ltr's. i about got the holeshot but an 06' 450r beat me to it because he was on the inside.
I recommend them. especially for the price.. you could almost buy 2 sets of kenda's to 1 set of holeshots.

Well, I got a Kenda sponorship letter in the mail yesterday and lets just say I WILL be running Kenda tires all the way around next year. I will be running the new 22" Klaw XC 6 ply with the 21" Knarly XC rear.

Awesome Sjorge.

But I believe the 22" Klaw XC fronts are only 4-ply. I know mine are

I run the knarly MX tires and love them. They bite better than holeshots in a straight line, but I think they also wear faster. However they are also much cheaper and I wont run another rear MX tire again!!!
