Default Just got some Holeshot HDs

Good lawd they are HEAVY! Im a bit dissapointed that the rubber is so soft, but overall they LOOK sweet. I will do some riding this weekend at the baja 500 so I will let you guys know how they performed. BTW, I went with 20x11x10 and they will go on 10x10 black lables.

On a side note, the guy incharge of the wheel/tire section said that putting those tires on my wheels "wouldnt work" because they would "de-bead" real easy. Ive been running 20x11x10 holeshots for almost a yr and have NEVER had any problems!

Well, Im kinda dissapointed with these tires. From the first day I got them, I noticed the rubber was REALLY soft. After about 70 miles of hard/medium riding, I already got a flat and they show wear. I was expecting A LOT more better performance. Power took a hit but they do hook up great. I think I might try out some kenda claws next time because these holeshots are just not for my type of riding. Im actually thinking about taking them off and getting the kendas. Overall, I DO NOT recommend them for dirt roads trails with any rocks or debris, they will just eat away the tire.

I bought Holeshot and Razr at the same time years ago. Noticed the Razr lasts longer so I got new Razr2 rear tires. Incredible traction and they are wearing well. Holeshots probably hookup better in some situations due to softer compound but I wanted the harder rubber for durability.

trade them in for XCR's , their same tread pattern and 6-ply and their ALOT lighter. they weight almost the same as the standard (4ply) holeshot

HD's have a little different tread patterns than the XCR's, the XCR's have diagnol X's on the sides for better cornering charact., the HD's have all horizontal X's for straight line traction. the XCR's r really light tho, and thats y alot of people get them
