Default Good deal on Dirt Devils?

I just picked up a set of 6 ply 25" Dirt Devils for under $190 otd.
I just hope they are not too much shorter than the stock Dunlops.
Really wanted the 26" for the deeper tread but they were $100 more.
Hope they wear well and look like they will bite pretty well also.

I have 26's on my Prairie and they are about the same height as the Flops, so you may find the 25's are a tad shorter. 190 bucks is a good price, I wont tell you, cause its kinda embarrasing, but I paid alot more ordered and mounted by the Stealer. I love mine, they look awsome and they rip on hardpack. Not superb for mud, but they get the job done. Good luck with them.

Just got the DD's on my 700 and I will never put anything other than a good stiff sidewalled tire on it.
Even though these tires are considerably heavier than the stock ones it makes stearing way easier and more surefooted. Wheelies aren't as easy anymore but they were almost too easy so no big loss there.
They seem to hook up real good and can still be spun hard by the awesome v-twin.

What tire pressure are you guys running in them? At 7psi they were nearly the same height as the stockers but rode kinda stiff. When I put in the slime I lowered pressure to 5 psi all around. Rides smoother but not as tall.

I run the 26's at 4psi all around. They are no taller than stock. They are an inch larger in width than my brother's Bearclaws, but look smaller side by side with his Prairie. They seem to wear just fine too, they've been on mine since about last August, and they still look mean. They have worn much better than the Bearclaws.

At 7 psi they seemed close to stock height but will give up some of that ground clearance for improved ride.

But I didn't have to wait for shipping cuz I am an impulse buyer.
I also helped out a local buisiness.
