um stay away form holeshots for sure. i ahve razors, they r good for hard pack. in any mud at all they dont work. bandits seem good. realtor. or something al little more agressive wold be good.

bandits are nice, realtors too.

I like my Kenda Vipers.

Maxxis Sur-traks are nice. Good for trails and mud, powersliding and the like isn't as easy though.

Holeshots do wear out fast. I have the XCT's. They seem to last a little longer but still wear fast. They do get awesome traction when they are new. But I have had mine for over a year and they are still ok. But not for to much longer.

Dont get holeshots or bandits. Get razr or shredder. Holeshots and bandits wear out and are too damn heavy.

I agree i have holeshots all the way around and the day i got em when i jumped it seemed like my 300 was 50 pounds heavier!!!!! Im going with shredder's after i ruin these which will take about antoher month(i only got em last month!) i heard they are lightweight and last a helluva lot longer

300exPaul: Seems like there is ALOT of controversy here, but I use the Holeshots 100% of the time. Have not had any "excessive wear" problems, I dont ride much pavement. I do have a set of Realtors for the mud, but I am "unhappy" with them cuz you CANT play. Meaning they "hook-up" too well. Cant do donuts with the tires in either direction. As for hillclimbing, the realtors take tooo much power away from the bike to climb (too much rubber to turn). Soo, I only use the realtors in DEEP snow and turn them backwards so they float. Holeshots seem to give me more control of the throttle when hillclimbing - my next set will be holeshots again!!

on edit: I have not seen any Razors before, so I cant say how they will do. Front Holeshots aren't worth a hill of beans!!!
