well unless you are going to be drag racing you will do fine with a good set of knobbies, i actually prefer the knobbies over the paddles.

I'll guess I will have to put in my vacation request. We just finished up the Halloween weekend at the dunes and we had a blast. There were lots of freaky costumes.

It is a night and day difference. Before it was a challenge to pull a third gear wheelie, now third and fourth gears wheelies are a breeze. Keeping the front end down is nearly impossible. If you want to race at the dunes, make sure you take off from the berm type starts. It is very east to install and sounds really good. Hope this helps, Later.

I am going to try and make it for a Turkeyday ride.

Talking about knobbies, I actually get faster times out there with my stock tires than I do with my Sand Sharks.

Considering I can get her all in one piece. Would I do better with 22" (24 with air in em :/ ) GBC mud tires (large V shaped tread pattern) or some 20 inch shredders?

i would go with the 20" shredders, assuming they have all the tread left on them.
