Well if your just going to ride in the Sand I would say that paddles are obviously "the best".

As for a mutli-purpose tire for hard pack, trails, mud, and sand the realtors look pretty good.

I'm not a sand rider (notice where I live), so I don't really know. I figured since no one else was going to reply, I'd help get things going.

Take Care,

-Josh

I have seen those realters before and they seem like a good idea.Do you use them or know anyone that has run them?If so,do they wear out slow or fast?Thanks for the reply anyway.

Well AZ,

I haven't had any experience with them, but people claim that they are a good tire.

There is a guy on this forum by the name of kukerdan. He has them on his Scrambler. He's got monster 25"ers on the back. He said that they are great in the mud, and on the trails and hard pack. He said that they aren't great on pavement (that is usually how it is anyway). He said that he hasn't seen a wear problem with his, but like I said, I haven't had any experience with them. The look like a good tire, and if you are going to be riding in the sand, then I don't think that wearing would be a big problem.

Like I said before though, I have no sand experience either [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Good luck.

-Josh

Take a look at the dirt devils. Cheap price for them and they have a good tread for sand, and they will work pretty good on the packed stuff as well. Probably the best all around tire you can get for your $$$$$
