Is a 22x10x10" 9 paddle hauler suiteable for the 450? Or should I go w/ the 20"? Mostly hillclimbs. I have a 13 tooth front sprocket

 

Go with 7-8 paddle but dont use the 13, go back to stock 14. But if you go with 20 keep the 13. The thing with the 20s, they will dig. IMO Go with 21x12x8 7 paddle double buff on blue label douglas. But you might not like the look of the 8" rim (smaller).

 

so where is a good place to get those 7 paddles at?

 

When you say go with the 13 tooth sprocket, are you talking about the 22" hauler or a 20. Also when you say "they will dig" did you mean 22s or 20's

 

Not sure why you are asking the same question twice in the same forum, but again, here is my answer (this is with STOCK gearing).

Are you racing others a lot, or just recreational riding with friends??

Recreational riding 10X10X20 8-9-10 paddle Haulers are fine

Racing/hillshooting, the serious guys are going with the 22" tall, 8" rims and 6-7 paddles.
Sounds wierd, but they are actually faster with the taller tires and less paddles (even with built motors).

I personally have the 20X10X10 8-paddles, and they do a great job, but I only drag and hillshoot (against others) about 10% of the time.

 

Make that 3 times on the same forum....... [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]
