Default Tires for my Raptor.

I am looking for some tires for my Raptor this summer, stock ones are going bald, and I was interested in the Holeshot HD. I do some trail riding mostly and a lot of backroad riding, but when I do trail riding....I LOVE THE MUD. What is a good size tire for front and back. I want some nice fat ones, they gotta look good. Thanks

If you like mud you won't want holeshots or Razrs. Some raptor owners on here I KNOW have some mud tires... now just wait for them to show up.

I have 22" kenda bear klaws on the back and stock on the front. Yeah, there's an argument they look silly on the raptor but I too ride in alot of mud and snow. They work very well and have excellent side bite. Just keep them off the pavement. Drop a tooth in the front sprocket if you're going that way.

If your going trails and mud id say def do 22". That way you get more ground clearance. I just put my 22" Kenda Klaws on and havent had them too long nor have a I had them in alot of different terrains. So far im very pleased. Drop a front sprocket or not, whichever you prefer. I have the mods listed below and didnt drop a sprocket and I am happy with the results, it keeps the front end from climbin all the time.
