Holeshots does really well. That is what I run on my 01 650.

I have Holeshot XCTs and they are great. I can highly recomend them. However, on every single DS650 I've seen setup for serious racing (Baja 1000 etc) had Bandit XCs on it, which are available in the same size and ply rating as Holeshot XCTs. I'd strongly consider the Bandits as well into you decision. If I had to do it over again, I might still buy the Holeshots, howver that is partially because I've never seen the Bandit's in person so I can't attest to how they look or how they perform either.

Holeshot 22" XCR in front & 22" XCT in rear. They work great.

I have had the 22/23 razrs and thought they were great!!!
I now have 21/20 klaws and the look mean!!!! I have no ride time on them yet but they are making a BIG hit on the XC racing...
Plus, the razr and klaw are cheap.

well i guess it depends on wat terrain u plan on riding on, if there will be alot on hard pack i'd go with bandits, thats what i plan on getting for the front, if it'll be alot of soft terrain razrs or holeshots work great, never seen the klaws yet, but i'll be checking them out later next week wen i got to Magic Racing, i'm gunna check out the knarly and mudlites too,personally i think the holeshots and razrs wear too quickly

Bandits STINK!!! The only reason desert racers use them is that they are extremely puncture resistant and will run flat if they are cut. They are too hard for hardpack, and terrible in soft stuff. The set I had were even out of round, shook badly over 35 mph.

I love my Holeshot XCT's. 23/22 all on 10" rims. Puncture resistant and hook up great on about all surfaces.
