Think im going to get holeshots my self been looking alot and like them the best. Im going with the HD but might not be best choice for you, if you go to there website and click on holeshots they have a graph that shows which holeshot is best for different situations.

Maxxis Razr IIs with T-9 Baha wheels. Awesome combination. Your Banshee will like the traction you get from those super tall knobbys.

what kind of riding. if its like rocky stuff where you might need the extra clearence then go t with 22 in teh rear and 23 in the front. other you can go down to a 18 front 18 rear i believe for like track motocross stuff. all i ride is mostly dezrt and rocky stuff. i have teh heavy 6ply 22rears and 23 fronts and 20rear 22front for some tracks but they still have rought stuff. i could never use 18 or i wouldnt have a swingarm at teh end of the race ro run.

yea but i get stuck sometimes when im on the trails so i want to get tires to fix that problem the stock size tires seem to be good on the engine power side i dont want to get a real small set of tires just same size or 1 or 2 sizes smaller because of clearance my choices are the holeshot xc xcr or xct for the types of riding i do what ones do you's like out of them 3

teh HD's are durable tires, but those are Xc tires. All the Xcr mxr tires dont last. SOmeone that rides Track should give you advise here I would get HDs and Razr 2 in front, but i dont knwo how that would affect riding in MX track.
