Default Tires???

Looking for rear tires for my Raptor, any suggestions? I do all trail riding in Michigan... Also who has the best prices?

Check out a CST ambush. 4-Ply tire sort of like a holeshot, coolest looking tread pattern, look amazing with the emblem on the sidewall, go through mud great, go on the trail great, a lot more tread than you think, but it's not overpowering. I had some rears on my 300ex, i went to the track, through mud, up rocky hillclimbs...
Best part is they are very reasonable.

Around here we like the Holeshot GNCC's 20x10x9. They are 6 ply and very lightweight, and hook up great in all kinds of terrain.

My buddie has some holeshots, he hates them.. lot of wheel spin on the big hills. Size wise: +1' on front than the tires on rear. I run 20's rear, 21's front. Would like to go to 19 rear, 20 front.

I hate regular holeshots but so far i like the gncc and quadcross. Gncc tires run small in the rear and big in the front so a 21 21 combo is perfect for those

Yeah I had some regular Holeshots and I hated them, too. There are like 100 million different versions of the Holeshot tire, but the GNCC series are awesome for trails!

I run Itp mudlites Sp on the back and i went with the Tech 4 XC on the front. I also ride mainly trails, woods, and fields. Bought them a year or so ago, and are holding up great. When i bought my raptor, it had razors on the back, and i had no grip with them.
