Right now I have sand skate II paddles and I am wondering if this is the best paddle for my set-up. I am thinking of getting 22x11x10-8 paddle haulers is this too much tire? I want the most forward traction.

My mods are listed below.

 

I personally stick with the sand skates. They are a heavy duty tire and provide alot of traction. I like the haulers too, but if you wanna spit some major sand skates are the way too go. Oh and I saw an issue of ATV sport I think and it had a shootout of the best paddles. The test bike was a Banshee and the hottest setup was a full setup of ITP paddles with smooth fronts all on alum rims. In second place were the sand skate II's that were slightly worn.

 

I think Sand Skat IIs are the hot ticket, especially if you ride the dunes and don't just hill climb/hill race. They have great hook-up and the chevron paddles make it easy to turn. The Haulers will give you more hook-up straight ahead but they won't corner as well.

 

I run a 21x12x8 8 paddle hauler. I also run a 13 tooth front and 39 rear. This hooks up great I rarely get beat off the line. I can climb about anything I want. As far as turning get a set of front ribed dune tires.

 

20x10x8 haulers work great or 20x11x8 Sand Devils. Niether is the best for turning, but a smaller wheel tire combo will take less power to turn and gears your quad down automatically. Smaller is better in this case!
