I am looking to find a good set of paddles for my sons 90cc eton. Is there anywhere online where I can get a good deal on tires?

I don't know about your particular model, but we have owned an LT80 and TRX 90, and both do better with the stock tires than they do with paddles. The paddles tend to dig holes, where the stock tires float better. I would have never gotten them if I had it to do again!!

We have an LT80 & TRX90 and the 80 has paddles and won't hardly move in the sand w/ them but the 90 we run stock tires w/ hardly NO air pressure and it goes great.

The Skat-Trak 18-8.5-8 work ok for a stock machine. If you build it then the paddles are a must. When you buy them expect to pay about 175 for teh set of tires and wheels.

I was always worried about paddles robbing power from my sportsman 90 until I found a guy with a scrambler 90 and he says they didn't rob any power. My friend and I both have sportsman 90's and the sand we go riding at has a few hills that are really hard to climb when there is no moisture in the sand. When mine and my freinds quad would climb the hill we get stuck in the same place an the hill every time. The kid on the scrambler 90 would slow a little but was still able to climb the hill. Our quads would just spin a whole while the scrambler would just float across the top and keep climbing. My brother has a trx 90 that he just bought and it climbs the same hill without even spinning. The trx 90 could give the scrambler a head start and still beat him up the hill. It must be something to do with the automatic tranny on the sportsman as well as being two stroke.

How about the 6 paddle gliders from skat-trak? If you give them a call, they will probably tell you if they would work.

unless you plan on piping the mini, I wouldnt buy paddles they do rob the power, we went with theKenda Pathfinder tire for rears on our Eton viper 50cc .It has a V pattern to it and it rides really nice in the sand...If you go with an aftermarket pipe,then minght I suggest the new paddle made by Skat Trak"the Exciter" paddle comes in a 5 paddle,call them for suggestions...
