Will new tires (holeshots, or razors) be that much of an improvement in traction over the stcokers? I run mainly trails, hardpack, dirt. I have a pipe (PC)and I think it might be too much (spin)for the stocker tires.

The rear stock banshee tires have too much flex on the side walls my friend just put 6 ply razrs on his banshee. They give better traction than the stocks. Yes the stock tires did tend to just spin a lot before they really hooked up on the dirt. He has also put grooved front radials on the banshee now turning is a snap

I just replaced my stock banshee tires with holeshots and trust me you will feel a difference with either tire. The stockers don't grab as well as either the holeshots or the razzars

What size did you put on yours? Did you keep the gearing the same?
