Haulers are extremely good hill shooting tires and can really get some good bite. We just got Sand stars for our Warrior, GREAT [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]... But on our YFZ we have Extremes, only about $100 tire and there great, but for price sake we're getting sandstars as soon as it wears out.

$248 per tire??? You need to shop around! Try rockymountainatv.com

Sandstars are a good all around V-paddle tire but they are heavier and will not hook up quite as well as haulers.

I have never had sand stars but just from looking they seem fairly light (compared to other molded tires) and with some blue label wheels they would be great for the price,

My SandStars get better bite than the SkatTrak Edges I borrowed. The hook up is very good. They may not be as good as Haulers, but they will be more than good enough.
