I just sold my 21" Geckos because they were worthless. Seems like the v-force needs a taller tire with more paddles. Also had a problem using reverse with the Geckos - buried it a lot. I see that Rocky Mountain sells 25/12/10 Realtors and 25/10/12 Paddle Masters. Has anyone been there & done that?

 

I run ITP 12" magnum Rims with 23" 9 paddle haulers and 23: smooth buffs on the front of my stock V-force. It hooks up awesome,and I NEVER get bogged down or stuck.

only down side is that it makes the V-force even taller,so wide open turns are not gonna happen. but you learn how to adjust your riding style pretty quick.



Bigger.

 

I have 23" 8 or 9 paddle extream haulers from skat trak. I never get stuck. There was one hill that I could not climb the first time. There was one guy there who seamed to climb it better and he had 22" tires. The one thing to note on that day is the sand was the dryest and lightest I have ever seen it. Maybe his higher rpm was helping.

 

After being on back order for the last six months, I just recieved a pair of ITP 22" Sand Stars from Rocky Mountian. I know alot of you have been waiting for these to become available so I thought I'd pass on the info, take care, Putt

 

Let us know how the ITPs work out on the V. Thanks.

 

I use the Sand Skate II's. They work great for me. I have only been out once (Glamis) and they worked great.

 

I have the realtors but haven't used them in sand only snow and they are great.

 

My buddy has 22" 9 paddle Taller Haulers, and that thing hooks up like there's no tomorrow. And...you should see the roost. It's definitely not too much paddle for the V-Force.

 

I got my 22" sand stars just after turkey day. They work great at glamis. (see pics of them in action at Glamis on my page) I could not find a hill i could not climb!

 

I had 21" Sand Skates on one of my KFX's and the new Sand Stars 22" on the other. I have tried Gecko's, V Edge, Haulers and 20" Sand Stars. The 20" Sand stars were the best 20" tires. I feel the Sand Skates are the best but the 22" Sand Stars are a close second and look way cool with the C-series rims on my sons Carbon Fiber KFX
