I was just courious on what kind of paddles people who are getting Raptors are going to put on the machine.... I was thinking 20x10x10 10 paddle haulers.... but was wondering if I should go 12 paddles?????? Also I was wondering how good the mohawks work in the front... compared to razor backs????

Any ways let me know what you think...

also whats the best (cheapest) place to order tires and wheels from???

Thanks

My Raptor is getting the wheels and tires from my Banshee, which are Sand Skate IIs and Dune Trackers. The Douglas wheels also have extra offset and are wider than the stock Yamaha wheels. The added width should work well.

I would not recommend any more than 9 paddles on your tires or you will put too much load on the motor. Wheel spin is important in sand and too much paddle will dig. Flotation is the key.
