Default just bought a predator

Those of you that have them what kind of paddles do you run? Which seems to work the best for the power this bike puts out? I ordered a set of Geckos but after reading about them I am canceling the order. Pismo is where I ride. I have a set of 8 paddle Haulers but they are on a rim that doesnt fit my bike (regular Polaris pattern), I have the $ to buy a package and want to try a different tire and compare the two. What do you guys think?

Everybody seems to like the Hauler 8's or skate II's . Look up "paddle tire" on the search of this site and you'll find several discussions.

ok i dont have a predator but go with the 8 paddle haulers or extremes. I have them on my raptor and they have awesome hook-up. Anything over 8 paddle would be over-kill i think. I believe the skat-tak edge are good tires also. Personally i have not had sand skate 2s yet for a quad but i have heard good things about them.

Edges for cruising, and Haulers for dragging.

yes exactly what modquad said. If you like to play around and slide around more than drag and hillclimb then edges are for you. Haulers and extremes are more for going fast in a straight line and hooking up like crazy.

the predator i rode had 20" 9 paddle haulers and it was pulling hard, i raced with one a lot that 20" 10 paddle and on comp hill it pulled hard, but on the flats it might have had a little to much drag
