I have a 98 banshee that is heavily modded.

I ride in Mexico and have to travel over hardpacked, gravel roads and asphalt on a regular basis.

I am looking for a tire that is durbale enough to not fall apart on asphalt, but also hook up well in the sand.

I am considering the Gecko, Paddle Master and King's Turbo tires in a 20x11x10 size.

Does anyone have any experience with any of these?

Are they durable?

Do they hook up in the sand?

Thanks!

 

i have the paddle masters. they hook up very well. but the tires are hard as hell. so riding on anything slowly is tough. also riding on hard pack will beat your teeth loose. i have the 10 in. wheels so not much tire. maybe the 8 in. wheels will give you more tire. the tire is tuff though.

 

Sounds like you need Realters they will be the best. If you have to ride on hadr packed paddles tires will not last very long.

Realters

 

I tried Realters by Pure Sports, but they were too heavy.

How about the Geckos?

Do the Paddle Masters hook up well in Sand? What kinda surface are you using your Paddle Masters on?

 

anyone else?

 

Well, I went out today and bought a set of Gecko's, 21x11x10.

Man, do they look cool!

I only hope they work as well as they look!
