It depends what you like to do.. The sandstars get an insaine amount of hookup but not so good for dragging.
I am here to say Sandstars SUCK on a 700. Get 21 or 22 inch haulers with 8 paddles. They will do the best.
I can't argue with that, I just didn't want to offend anyone that thought sandstars were the chit [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
I had the 700 in a hole at Sandlake. It had the sandstars on it. I started to get worried, didn't think it was gonna make it out. I put on the haulers and presto, hill climbing fool. It seemed easier to ride wide open and to carve, with the haulers.
As a 700R owner for 20 months and running both Haulers and Sandstars for the past year, here's my opinion:

Haulers will give you an advantage in drag racing if all other factors are equal.
Sandstars will carve easier and sometimes will break the rear loose too much with too much throttle.
Sandstars will hookup like crazy (just watch up comming video from Jayna).
I had no problem with any treeshot, launch pad (except for the one) or hillclimb at Florence, Winchester or Coos Bay.
Sandstars climbed Banshee Hill II, (the new route to the left of original route) flawlessly.
Haulers, especially 22's, will throw a ton more roost than Sandstars, be careful who you ride behind.

This past week, I started out with 20" Sandstars, switched to 22" Haulers then switched back to 20" Sandstars, I just had more fun on them, I had to work the Haulers more to get them to do what I wanted. On the beach trail at Florence I would two wheel more with the Haulers (just ask Rod) and could hang closer to Jayna with the Sandstars.

Haulers are great tires, everybody uses them.
Sandstars are great tires also for a general dune play tire.

I'll go down any treeshot with my Sandstars that you'll go down with your Haulers, (just don't let Val know) Banshees excluded [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

Ummm, I'm going to pick up the bucket and blade for the quad this week over at the farm. It will be available the following week for dirt duty if that would help make the pain go way. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
