Dirtbike Paddle Tire

Granted this isn't ATV info, but I figured with enough guys on the board that maybe someone could help me.

I have a 2002 CR125, I'm interested in getting a paddle tire. For my size tire I have the choice between a 6 paddle, 8 paddle, and 10 paddle tire.

On the 10 paddle is says for high horsepower bikes, so I think that rules that one out.

My question is, will my bike be able to pull a 8 paddle tire without stuggling? My bike is not stock and does have some engine modifications done. I just don't want to buy a 8 paddle when my bike can't turn it well enough, or get a 6 paddle and not get the additional traction an 8 paddle would allow...

Any help with this?

not speaking from experience but from what I was told for the 125 in the sand to get the 6 paddle tire.
