I have both, but I haven't tried the new ITP's yet because of the 60+" of snow on the ground! Anyway, I think that the ITP's will probably work better because of the more open tread pattern they won't load up like the car radials do. I also like the lug pattern on the ITP's better and I am sure that they will last longer. Plus, they are a lot cheaper! If you haven't bought any yet, go with the ITP's

I plan on getting some for this season. But they look like they will work better than the car radials.

For ITP, this was a no brainer. Wish Maxxis would do the same. Have a tire war on the track. Both have a MX 18 inch rear out there.

THERES NO WAY THEY CAN LAST LONGER THAN A RADIAL BECAUSE THERE ALOT SOFTER AND THE RADIAL WAS ACTUAL MADE TO RUN ON PAVEMENT IF I WERE BUYING RIGHT NOW I WOULD GO WITH THE ITP BUT TAKE IN TO CONSEDERATION THAT THEY WONT LAST AS LONG

I am sure they will wear faster than the car tires. But that added softness in the rubber will give more traction in the turns. If I can get a season out of them, I would be happy.

I thought the MX fronts were radials?
