Default Paddles For Scrambler?

I want to say that other quads with 4/110 will work. I know My buddy got some rims for his Trailblazer from a guy with a Yamaha. Just don't know which model. Here is a link to a good sizing chart. Maybe it will help. bolt pattern chart

Default Paddles For Scrambler?

About a year ago, I bought some sand paddles for my Scrambler once. (ITP something or another). Went out riding on the sand dunes near Glamis. The front end and handle bars would shake a lot during acceleration. At the end of the day, my belt shredded. I was riding pretty hard, but could that have anything to do with the tires? I haven't put them back on since, I wasn't use to the instability of the rear end. Has anyone else noticed that ? The shaking front end that is.

I have used several different paddles on my 400 4x4's.
20-11-10GBC paddle masters (Very durable,good hook up, Very Very Heavy, NO Floatation NONE!!!!)

20-10-10 Sand Skat II Vpaddles (Nice tires, Durable, Great hook up, Heavy but OK floatation.) I actually had these all the way around (4 of them) Don't wast your time,It just kills your power. The scrambler does not have enough power to keep your wheel speed with paddles all the way around. If you look most bikes can't handle rear 10 paddle alone.
20-10-10 sand sharks (Durable, poor hook up so wheel speed is not an issue, floatation is ok, GREAT BARGAIN PADDLE)

22-11-10 Skat Trac Haulers 7 paddle (Outstanding tire, Very Lite, super hook up)
22-11-10 Skat Trac Haulers 8 paddle (I can't really tell mutch difference between the 7 and 8, Maybe a little better bite.(BY FAR MY FAVORITE) My opinion is these are the best paddle tires on the market for a Polaris scrambler.


As for the size thing you MUST keep your front to rear ratio the same, It will only cause excess wear and lower durability. If you want to run 20s you should go down to 21s in front. If you run your stock 23" up front, you should be running22" in the back.

I got a set of 21/11/10 Geckos on Douglas .160's for a Scrambler if interested. They only have about 10 minutes of ride time on them. Email me if interested.

I have used the extreme haulers for about a year now and love them the only thing I could complain about is I cant turn a cookie or U'ee nomatter how far forward I lean but I very very rarely get stuck. If I can't get out in forward i can in reverse.

jammer 42 have you ever tried turning your front tires around backwards I am going to try it sometime at the dunes because I think that the traction would work better that way.

I started out running sand skate ll's andmy wife was having a hard time burying it everytime she was on a slight slope. A friend told me about trying 22" edges and she an stop on a pretty extreem hill now and just walk right out without even thinking about getting stuck. I tried them sand dragging up the hill with a stop watch and they were a 1/2 second faster in 100 yds up the hill. I then tried 22" 8 paddle haulers and they were another 1/2 second faster than the edges and I ended up with 22" 10 paddle haulers which shaved another .2 second off the 8 paddle haulers. I tried them all with the same bike and gearing on the same morning. By luck I had enough people that already had these tires, we just had to bust them down every time as wed only had 1 set of polaris rims with us. Since we have drilled the honda bolt pattern onto my polaris rims at least so my family can swap wheels and tires easily.
