It seems like every time I go riding I wind up with a flat. I have the factory issue banshee tires on the rears and last time I rode I got a hole that I could almost plug with my little finger. Then when I was out today I got a piece of chain link fence wire in my tire on the other side. What kind of tires do they use on those Baja runs. I need something that can take sharp rocks and all the other crap you wind up driving over when you ride along the RR tracks and on the shoulder of the road.


ps if anyone has some good factory rear tires and/or rims laying around, I sure could use some spares. I know I'll go broke buying new tires and before long the only knobbies on the ones I've got will be from the plugs stickin' out.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

 

Maxxis Razrs have a 6 ply tire for the front and the rear.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

Holeshots come in 6 ply along with bandits.

 

i do the same type of riding i have 6 ply razers and they are tough and great grip i like them i have heard of some with kevlar live in bullet vests

 

I chose Razrs for the rear of my 300ex. They're 6-ply. Much better than stock.

 

I have Bandits with the Kevlar belts, very tough!!

 

GBC DIRTDEVILS are 6 ply and very inexpensive!

 

Who makes Bandits????????????

 

Pure Sports make Bandits. They have 4 ply and 4 ply w/ Kevlar (which I understand is the same strength as a 6 ply, but less roll over... which sounds great to me.)
I am hoping to get some 22" Bandit XC's for my Warrior before too long.

 

Good recommendations so far.

Also, try airing your stock tires up to about 6.5-7 pounds of air. This will cut down on tire flats dramatically.
