I need some opinion on the upsides and downsides to "sport" tires. I have a banshee, and the stockers really suck.
I'm thinking Holeshots, Bandits, Shredders, Razrs, or Turf Tamers

Also, is it worth it to get the front also?

Are these tires for racing or just playing around? Are you looking for traction or durability?
Turf tamers offer great traction but they wear out quickly, use them only on soft dirt or sand.
I have also used schredders. They seem to last a long time.

retro is rite about what are you using them for. i put on the razr 6ply on my 98 banshee and love them!!! with grooved radials on the front. with the hole shots the all leak!!! we have had 3to4 sets on our bikes and all of them went flat!
look at rocky mountain they seem to be the cheapest!! my razr 6ply's were $54.99 per tire!
good luck!

The others are all corect in that it depends on your use. I bought 6 ply bandits and really love them. A ton of traction in mud, soft and hard compound. Plus the duribility is up there. Durability is the main reason for he purchase. But haven't complained at all !!

the front radials only come in one size. they are alittle smaller than stock. i put them on my stock front rims, but it is hard to seat the bead.
due to the rim is alittle wider than the tire. you can see what i mean in the site below with our pics. i recommend them highly.
p.s. click on photo albums to view pages of pics.
