Im going to get padles for my Scrambler to help when I ride in the Badlands and Silver Lake Sand Dunes. I noticed that most people use the straight tread design. The angled with a slight v shape look like they should work great. Anyone try these and if so how did they work?

I have never ran this type of tread but from what I've read the angled paddle is easier to steer than the straight paddle.The straight paddle is more for straight-line traction such as sand dragging / hill shooting....Anyone ever run em on a big 4x4 ??

Angled paddles don't work well on heavy quads.Stick with a straight paddles.I've used both,the angled paddles work well on a 3-wheelers.Kenda Dune Runners seem to be the best "bang for the buck".
