I want to go with 6 ply tires front a rear and want to go back to the factory size.20" Rear and 21" front.Im thinking the only tires in this catagory would be 1=Razors 2=Bandits 3=Holeshots Which ones would be best for trail riding including mud,sand and water.Keep in mind they must be available in the sizes above and also 6 ply.Does anyone make radials in 6 ply?Whats my other tire options?

frome the tires you listed above the bandits are the best in mud and that wet slopy stuff. I never had them in sand but some people say they dig to much in sand. Try searching for bandits in this fourm you should find a lot about them.

I'll put my 2cents in for the Holeshots and Razrs. Both of those seem to do real well in "loam" or loose conditions. I've raced the Holeshots in really muddy conditions once and they surprised me on how well they did. I could wheelie out of about any mud bog with a dump of the clutch. They flat out dig in and go. I had XC and my friend has XCTs...can't complain other than they don't last long. Softer the tire, the more traction you get. Razrs are nice also, just I didn't think they bite as good on hard pack and rocky areas...but good everywhere else. If you are looking for puncture resistance, I had only one flat so far with them...a sidewall cut that required a tire replacement. I would buy again for sure.

I just ordered Razrs for my rears on my 400ex, i got the 4 ply because nobody had the 6 ply in stock and i didn't want to wait 2 weeks for them.
