i was wondering what tires for the rear should i get. i do mostly trail riding and riding on semi loose sand and packed gravel. what tires should i get the razrs or the holeshots thanks

 

What kind of machine? I would recommend a different tire for a Blaster (lighter), than I would for a Raptor! The new Holeshot H-D, should be an excellent eastern trail tire.

 

JMO, but I don't think that will make a good sand tire.

 

The Holeshot H-D does very well in the sand (we have a little sand here in So. Calif.!). The ***** are widely spaced and deep, so the tire gets a good bite in soft stuff. Where it doesn't do so great, is on desert hardpack. Now, I am not recommending this as a tire for the dunes, but rather something like running up a sand wash on a cross-country ride.

 

i have a blaster so does that make any difference on your choice. dont foget some of it will be for trail riding to. the sand i ride in is at a pit. not dunes

 

See your other post. I recommend the Standard Holeshots for the little Blaster. I had not ridden a Blaster in years, but I rode a friends the other day. Brought back a lot of memories! Great fun little bike!

 

what tires wear slower the holshots or the razr's thanks

 

Holeshots wear out quicker. They are designed for soft dirt. Hence, the ***** are softer for a better grip. You take them on a trail and they'll wear out about 4 times quicker than the Razrs. If you get the Razrs, don't worry about getting the II's or MX's. Get the plain old Razr's. Don't spend more money on something that you don't really need. You might also consider the Carlisle Truf Tamers. A little cheaper than the Maxxis, but not quite as great for life length. But for the kind of riding that you do, I would go with the Turf Tamers, or Razrs. Razr's will give you quite a bit more bite on those trails too.

 

whats the difference in razr's and razr 2's anyways?

 

razr 2 have alot bigger ***** and only come in 6 ply and 30$ more per tire than the razr and 20 more per tire for the 6 ply razr.
