Well, the time has come...the scrambler has made those stock titans bald..now my next question to all enthusiats is which is the better tire for multiple terrains (mud, snow, hardpack, sand, etc.), GBC Dirt Devils or Kenda Bear Claws. The claws look pretty aggressive which I like, but are a little pricy, just wondering if they were worth it. Also when I decide between the two, I'm going to mount them on .190 rims, but who makes the better rim...ITP or Douglas. I see that Douglas is a little more coin...is the extra$$$ worth the while on these combos??

I would say the Dirt Devils are more aggressive looking than the bearclaws. I've got the Dirt Devils on the back of mine and they work great.The only thing is in the snow they like to dig a little bit too much.They say they last a lot longer than the bearclaws too.

Why not get realtors? They are great for sand and mud, and even hardpack. Theyre really cheap too. Itp and douglas.190 rims are almost identcal. Amost the only differnce is one days ITP.

Judging on your riding style I'd say that the Dirt Devil's would be the better tire for you. Dirt Devil's are the tire that I will be putting on the back of my machine as soon as my Wrangler Sport,s are destroyed.

What happened to you Saturday I was ready to go riding down at the river?[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img]

Dirt Devils.....I have a friend who has a set on his Kawasaki 650. They ride pretty smooth and also should give good milage. I have a set mounted on .190 Douglas Aluminum on the way for my Sport 400L. They should be here this week. I was told that the Douglas wheels are a little tougher than the ITP. And they also shine a little better. It was only like $4 more per tire I think.
Hope this helps.
