Default 22 or 23" Holeshot HD's or 22" Razr 2's for the front??

Those are my 2 options. My favorite 2 stores are both out of the 23" Razr 2's, so it is down to the 22 or 23" Holeshot HD's or the 22" Razr 2's. I'm currently tireless in the front (Read my bead breaking story), and need to get things moving.

I have read a few other posts on these (relating to other machines), but wanted to get a better feel on how they differ and how they will perform and last on the larger, heavier, DS650.

For the rear I swap in between the stock Ohtsu 20's and my 22x11x10 Dirt Devil II's. The Ohtsu's for the summer (easier to slide and quicker to drag race) and the Dirt Devils for rough (mud) riding and winter (They do not get stuck...ever).

Please help me out with your opinion!

I ran the Razr II's on my DS for YEARS! but i ran the 21", i dont like tall front tires, and they are still 90% tread, for all the road ridin i did im surprised at how long they lasted, barely worn down and never a puncture, plus they traction real well, i like the holeshots as well, ran them for a while, def liked the razr II fronts more, but i think the holeshot rear tires are better than the razr II rear tires

Excellent, I was leaning toward the Razr II's anyway. After reading your post, I pulled the trigger and ordered a set. Should be here Wednesday.

I got the 22" Razr II's installed this evening and took her for a spin. They have a lot more turn in (aka-they steer better) then the stockers...steering feels a little lighter, too, due to their more rounded profile. Front brake stopping is greatly improved!

The only downside is that I get hit with more crap when I ride. I'm not sure if that is just from the tires...or from the slightly different offset douglas rims.
