I want to get rid of the ballon tires what tires are you guys running, I don,t want to slow down at all, but I would like better handeling to keep it from being tippy and what size are you running, does any help out with better top speed or acceleration?[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

well... the only way you're not going to lose top speed, is to not go with a smaller tire...

but you are right, you need a less grippy, flatter tire....

does turf-tamers make a 22" tire..... or like Kenda Scorpions?

both of those slide alot better than the stockers....

don't go with Holeshot or Razors... they have way too much side bite for a little 4-stroke

look around... good luck

 

My friend ran 20x10x9 bandits on his 250ex and they worked well for him, i also run those on my 400ex

 

what do u mean dont run razrs? i run them on mine and they hook up awesome, i recomend them to ne one. mine r 20-11-9, i didnt notive any loss in top speed but they also make a 22in tire.

maxamillion,

He was refering to the side bite for sliding, not straght ahead traction. That being said, stay away from the Razr2 rears. I went on a poker run last weekend on my 400EX and all it wanted to do was tip over. It had too much side bite to allow them to slide. The front Razr2s are great though. They tracked straight through the mud and gunk like dry pavement. Might I reccomend Holeshot XCRs (not XCTs) for the rears. They are designed for four strokes without a lot of horsepower.

 

i thought u were talking about the regular razrs. thats what i have and i am able to slide pretty good with them. but i dont know about the razr2 tires.

 

get all tracks for the rear and front pro or pro fronts w.e thy are called made by maxxis..

 

Like I said, the Razr2s are "all that" as far as straight line traction. The lugs are a lot taller than the standard Razrs. On up hills I tried to feather the clutch to get some wheel spin and the RPMs up, no such luck! In the corners they seemed to stick like glue. I had a rough time sliding them even in the soft, loose stuff. Only when things got slick (i.e. hard, wet clay) would they finally slide.
