What is a good choice for aftermarket tires for my raptor. Would ITP Holeshots be a good choice if so what size for the front and rear? Could you also give me some links to websites that sell aftermarket accesories for the raptor? PLEASE HELP! Thanks in advance!

If I was you, I would get a tire with less sidebite so you can pitch the quad sideways easier. Keep the rubber side down!

My riding buddy has a warrior with Bandits front and back and they are almost indestructible!!! He says they're really easy to pitch sideways. When I get my raptor, I'm gettin Bandits. (P.S) A tire that spins and slides extremely easy is the stock Banshee tire.

hi
i run shredders 20x11x9 on my banshee , works great as a all-rounder.it slides very good because of the wide flat riding surface.
up front i run shredder 21x7x10 , the best front tire on any quad. they seem to last 4 ever because of a solid strip of rubber down the centre of the tire.
on my raptor i have kenda all-track 22x11x10 ,they work in sand + mud and where you need serious tracsion.when they are done i will go on to shredders.

i live in south africa , we dont have a large selection of tires like you lucky people in the states.
paul

ps... the only paddles available here , kenda dune runner 22x11x9 or 22x11x10 8 paddle.
