Default Time for new tires for the Shee, which ones????

It's overdue and I need new rear tires for my Banshee, but I wanted some input and opinions on some good gravel roads tire. I want a 4ply tire or less to keep the weight down and either a 20" or 18" to be mounted on my stock 9" rims. I liked the Rarz's but feel they are pretty heavy as when I put them on my Raptor It must of weighed around 6-7 lbs. more each one than the stockers I took off. Any other experiences with good tires ie. kenda claw & kenda dominators, ITP holeshot, turf tammers, fast trekkers, or ???

20x11x9 razrs are the tires ive had the best luck with. I have tried holeshots and tamers in the 18 and 20's and my best luck has been with the razrs!

Ive had holeshots on my shee for over 2 years and they still have about 45%+ tread life on them, i take them on the highway, dirtroads, all over the place and they still have loads of tread. I have 20x11x9 and i love them, they get great traction for the power. gl

I like the Dunlops off the YFZ 450. You can find them on Ebay. I don't know how well they would last riding on gravel though.

Buy the holeshot mxr's. I have them on mine, and love them. They are 2 ply, and are a special rubber compound which weighs less. They are sold in 18-10-9.

I like the Razr's and holeshots the most. But the Razr's are my favorite. They last forever, get through everything, and hook up PERFECT. Love em.

I have Kenda Klaws mxr and love them. They are 18'' and are 4ply. Great bite and are reverse able for your terrain. Last long and cost less. I just need to regear for the smaller tire.

I love fast trekkers. Holeshots are great but I think they wear too quick. I hate Razr's on a banshee. All they did was spin.

I have some 18" trekkers for 8 and a set for 10" rim. Let me know if you would be interested.
