I have run 8 paddles on everything I have ever owned, and have had NO problems with power. I run 22X11X10 Skat Trak Edges on my wifes 300ex and it pulls with no problem. 6 paddles are meant for a LT80. I run 20X10X10 Skat trak Haulers on my LT250r. 99% of quads run 8 paddles, and 99% of tires sold through classifieds or Ebay are 8 paddles. Many brands don't even offer an option of paddle amounts. Skat Trak is the main one that does.

Have you done any mods to your quad yet. If you have some money, I recommend a White Bros E series pipe and a K&N filter(with outerwear). Jet your quad to about 142 or 145 It really wakes it up. If you drill holes in the air box lid it helps more. This is a really good sand setup. Not as good for really dusty areas. Or, dont drill holes, and just remove the lid for the sand, and put it back on for dirt riding. I did all this to my wifes bike and it is such a different quad. We got it bone stock.
