I am looking for recommendations of size and type of tires for Baja. I am looking at Bandits or XCT's (or recommend something). Probably 22 in rear and 23 in front. Any suggestings? Thanks

Don't get the flat front Bandit! Mine is the 22" XCT and has way too much contact patch.....TWITCHY! The rears are awesome though.

If you ride in nothing but mud the bandits are real good and very puncture resistant. On the downside, they are heavy and don't get very good traction on loose terrain and grass. I had the bandits and swapped for holeshots and am very happy.

I have a set of Bandits, and I wish I had gotten the holeshot XCT's. I don't like mine. They are exactly how Rockey described. Get the Holeshots

I have both the holeshot xct's and the bandit xc's and in soft stuff I prefer the holeshots, but when it is a little tacky out the bandits are awesome.

Thanks for the great input. Holeshot XCT's are for me. Should I just put them on the stock Baja rims or order other ones?
