I have a trx250r, thinking about getting some haulers for it. I was thinking about 20x10x10 8 paddles. Anybody have any opinions or suggestions. The motor has been ported and polished and a pipe. Thanks for the help.!

I have those exact same tires on my DS, and I love them. I am not sure, but I think for two strokes, you can go up to like the 10 paddle haulers and they work better. I am not sure on this and maybe someone will chime in and straighten me out.

I love the skat trak tires overall.

if your still at 250cc stay with teh 8 paddle... the 10 paddles are better for big bore and 500's.

I've got the 8 paddle haulers on my 310R and they rock. I think 9 or 10 would be to many for anything but a 350 or bigger.

I run a set of 10 paddle haulers and think they are great, until you are trying to turn while on the throttle or simply kicking the rear end around. I used to run 10 paddle Scat Trak edges and they are a much better tire for all around dune riding. The Haulers just hook up too much for playing around. Dont get me wrong, I would not run anything but haulers for drag racing, but Im going back to Edges when these are wore out, as I dont just drag race!!!

I run 21*12*8 8 paddle haulers and they wrok great on my 250r, the only down side about them is that they don't turn worth crap even with mohawks they are great for climbing hills though.

Your choice is excellent just don't run them in any kind of hard pack, they break apart easily.

I have 8 paddle haulers on my 400EX and they work great. I had 20x10x10 on my wifes 300EX and I liked them, but it was very easy to dent the rims if you him any rocks. I went with 20x10x8 on my 400EX this time.
