Anyone try Ripper paddles?
I am using Rippers on my DS650. The paddles are 1/8" taller and 1/8" thicker than Extremes. That means they are 1/8" shorter and 1/4" thicker than Taller Haulers, or 1/8" taller and 1/4" thicker than regular Haulers. So the paddles are mainly just thicker and more tear resistant, and able to handle higher horsepower while maintaining their shape and not being damaged.
They work "ok", but not as good as Extremes in my opinion. The difference is NOT due to the size of the paddle, but rather the shape of the paddle. The carcass of the Ripper paddle tire is more rounded, which I don't think is as good, and the leading edge of the paddle is straight up and down, instead of a hooked shape like the Extreme paddle. If I were to buy another set of paddles for my DS I would choose Extremes instead of another set of Rippers. Only problem is, these Rippers are so dang tough that I'll never wear them out, or damage them, LOL.
