Which tires should i get out of these three for my blaster.

-Pure sports Bandits (20", 4 ply)
-ITP holshot XCT (20", 4 ply)
-GBC Shredders (20", 4 ply)

I do mostly riding on dirt and grass, and am starting to ride MX on a track. I do very little trail riding and very little riding on rocks. I am planning on going on the dunes a little so i want a tire that will work well for all these situations, and i wont have to replace it all the time because they wear too fast. Also i want good grip and easy powerslides. If you have any other suggestions as to other brands and kinds other than these i would like to hear them. Thanks in advance.

I'd say bandits, good on MX, slide easy and wear nicely

Holeshots wear fast! I have brand new ones on my 300EX and they are wearing away a good bit every ride.

Shredders, never used em

What would happen if i got 20x10x8's? Would there be too much sidewall flex? I dont want to get that big of rims. The biggest i would go is to by 9x8 inch rims. Thanks for the help.

IM gonna ask again because i think nobody read this after i wrote. If i buy 20x8-8 tires instead of 20x8-9 razr's will there be too much sidewall flex with the 8 inch rims instead of the 9 inch rims? I know the 9 inch rims are more expensive and so are the tires that would fit that rim so is the extra money worth it? Or should i just go with the 20x8-8's?

Do you think the Blaster has enough torque to spin 22" Bandits or are the 20" Bandits the way to go?

first of 20 inch bandits are huge so just get them.....! about getting the 20x 11x 8 if u get douglas or Itp wheels it will be alright but if u use stock u will have to cut some of the black part by the floor board. out of all tires for the blaster i would still get RaZrs

I think im going to order a set of Razrs all around with 190s for mine...

I'm going to buy the new 18" Razrs on some ITP steel rims. Then I am keeping the stock for riding in snow.

Has anyone tried Ohtsu Pro Wedge II 's? I run them on my blaster and they work great for woods, mx, river riding or whatever
