I have 22in razors on the mighty raptor and today while riding I blew past a few other riders and they said they saw smoke from my quad. I looked at my tires and I have a nice new groove in the tread from where the Foot gaurd hit the tire. So anyone investing in new tires watch the top speed. I was running around 70. Just for precaution watch your wheels with over size tires.

Why are you running Razors instead of the stock radials? Do the Razors out perform the Dunlops?

 

I have 20" Razors (4 Ply). I run them because of the stiffer sidewall, less body roll and it makes for better slides. The traction is still very good also because of the Raptors short wheelbase. And it gives you a little more of a non-stock look. Only problem I had with them is that obviously 20" Razors are taller than the stock 20" radials so I had to change my gearing. (14-40 to 14-42).

 

What are your thoughts on Holeshots

 

depends do u want holeshots for trails or motocross

 

my buddy just picked up the mudsharks for his raptor, do you think he will have a problem. the lug on these tires are huge. We checked and it doesn't rub at low speed, but we never checked high speed. That would suck if they do rub.

 

I have 22 inch bear claws.. had this problem!!!

Mine was from hitting a tree and bending the foot guard back some..

I want to extended the swingarm anyway, so that will fix the problem for good

At high speeds the tires get skinnier and taller. That is why they were rubbing. I took a come-along and bent the foot gaurds forward about and inch. No more rubbing and I cannot tell that I bent them while riding. I put the 22 in razors on because 1 I needed the clearance and 2 the stock tires are weak. I got a blowout the first week I had my Raptor.
