Maxxis Introduces the iRazr Radial Tire. BIG $$$
Maxxis Introduces the iRazr in Summer, 2004
This summer, Maxxis will introduce its newest ATV tire, the iRazr, to the championship-winning line of Razr tires. Designed for cross-country competition, the iRazr utilizes radial rather than bias construction along with a new tread design.
The iRazr’s radial construction gives a smoother and more controlled ride by reducing bump steer and arm fatigue, giving riders that extra edge. Radial construction also reduces sidewall tension of the tire. This reduction in tension allows a wider contact patch with the terrain, providing more traction.
The iRazr’s tread design provides responsive steering and predictable braking for more control over different terrain types. One way this is achieved is by the engineering of the tread blocks. The blocks are constructed in such a way that they reduce squirm while additional edges molded into the blocks add extra bite. Another feature of the iRazr is the void areas. These are designed specifically to be ultra smooth and wide causing mud to shed quickly for maximum traction. The iRazr features a durable, six-ply construction, adding a high degree of puncture resistance and increasing tread life. Finally, the iRazr’s attractive hot patch compliments an already great looking tire.
Bill Ballance, 4-time GNCC Champion, tested the tire and gave his stamp of approval: “This tire has the best traction of any sport quad tire I’ve ever ridden.” Maxxis believes the iRazr will set the bar for cross-country racing tires and looks forward to seeing those results on the track.
Specifications for the iRazr Tire:
Radial construction creates larger contact patch for better acceleration.
Greater impact absorption increases ride comfort.
Superior control - holds line when cornering yet allows rider to slide through turns predictably when necessary.
MSRP Rear:
20x11-9 $104.83
20x11-10 $107.95
MSRP Front:
21x7-10 $90.55
22X7-10 $93.55

I called Maxxis to see if they were a couple of weeks ago. They said the tires were a 4ply version of the tire, not a actuall iRazr 6ply. I saw the tires up close, and they didn't impress me at all. Very low knobbies, and spaced far apart. But I didn't try them, so they may work great.
