GBC Dirt Devils work great! I went to riding this weekend in southern West Virginia where this alot of rocks, alot mud, and deep ruts. I didn't get stuck the whole weekend. I never used 4wd the whole weekend. Recommend 100% and the only cost about $50-60.

Default Scrammy tires, Whats the best for my riding??

OK guys anyway I go im looking at about 200 shipped to my door for 4 tires unless I go with like holshots which are about 85+ a tire not including shipping. Stockers at walmart are about 55 i think yet if you hard enough they are 2 ply not 6 so im not getting those. How heavy are those Bear Claws? Im really liking the looks of those! dirt devils are good too. Trouble is I road ride alot, almost everyday I have to ride about 5 miles or more on pavement with turns and I dont like to go slow so im sure the faster I go in the turns the faster they wear out. What tire would perform better the dirt devils, bear claws, or stockers. Those stockers are like my stock sportsman tires, They have lasted a very long time but like to slide very easy on slippery grass and in mud, If you are half on a rut and half off they easily slip into the rut. What tire is lighter? Stockers, dirt devils, or bear claws? Or should I be looking at a completely different brand, Or should I throw on the aluminum rims from my warrior on it, or just aluminum rims in general and go with the heavier yet better tire? Im not looking into losing speed either! I drag down the road as often as I can and im sure a big heavy aggresive lug tire will suffer my speed. Let me know your thought. Thanks alot, Brian

well my old Holeshots were shot in a year, but i ride about a hour everyday in the summer and i have to ride on pavement too...

my new holeshots are holding up well, but i dont think it really matters what you get if ur riding on pavement, it'll wear any tire down fast. alot of guys go with the bear claws and i almost did to! if i were to change a tire i'd probably change to that

I would go with the stock 489s on alluminum wheels.I have over 125 hrs on my rears(replaced the fronts last month due to a tree ripping a sidewall) and I still have half tread.
The 6ply will hold up better to sticks and thorn but will wear faster on pavement.My son has about 60 hrs on a set DirtDevils and they are over half woreout.To me a plug or two is cheaper than a new set of tires every yr or so.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
