Default paddle tires on a prairie 650

Has anyone put paddles on there prairie 650 if so what type and how much did it help? I primarily ride in the sand and my prairie does really good but was wondering if would make a significant difference to put paddles on it.

get 25 inch paddle masters at rockymountianatv. when your going above 20 mph and in two wheel drive, the acceleration is comparible to a prairie without paddles and in 4 wheel drive. if you ride beach dunes than go by the wet sand floor it ( use some body english) and the front end will come up and you can ride the wielle for at least 50 yards. going up comp hill you will have to use 4 wheel drive cause on a dead start you wont get enough hook up to beat alot of quads. put it in 4 wheel drive and youll take just about anything that isnt a two stroke. you can also whielle up comp hill with theas tires if you have enough b@lls.on the drags youl be able to hang with most rapptors and eat any sport quad without paddles.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

I went up Comp Hill in reverse on my 650P last year.
Also Oldsmobile Hill.
Watch out for Comp Hill the broken glass is everwhere..................

Paddles on the front probably ain't a good idea. I have heard of people trying it on Scrambler 4x4 machines. They said the steering became so heavy it was unbearable.
