I just got my Raptor today. I am also going to put different tires on it.

I love the Bandit front tires. I have them on my 400EX. They make the machine feel way wider because of their square profile. One drawback is that they have so much tire on the ground that they pick up alot of vibration from the ground. (You can feel the ground more than the Holeshot or Razor) But the stiff sidewall makes the machine feel wider.

The Bandit rears are only good on hardpack. When you put it near mud or crud, they slip way to easy. I bought a brand new pair and used them twice. It was spring and they just spun and got stuck. I then bought Maxxis Sur Trax. I love them. They are sporty enough to rip around on sand, mud, woods, hardpack. They may not have the grip like the Razor, Holeshot, Bandit on hardpack, but they sure beat them in the sand, mud, snow. It was an easy decision. I am going to put the exact same combination on my Raptor. 22" Bandits up front, and 22" Sur Trax on the rear. I am going to get the widest offset rims I can get. I hope I can get a little more clearance and more width.

I won't get them for another month or so, but I will let you know.....

Go with pure sport realtors if you want an aggressive tire.
I recommend a set of beadlocks on the rear to hold the large tire in place, the stockies bend under pressure.
