Default Bandit or Trekker for Raptor?

What is a better tire for all around use for mx and trail, Pure Sport Bandit or Titan Fast Trekker? Where can I find JUST the tire and not rim?

You can get either tire individualy from rocky ymountain atv. I have the Bandits on my warrior and they do improve the handling. Also they will haul me though any knind of mud i stick in their faces. I dont know about the trecker's. Any thing is better than stock though.

i've heard you have to run 10lb of air in the bandits to kep them on the wheels. what about a razr or a itp product? they are great sliders and trail tire.

Rockymountainatv.com!!! There are many tires to choose from there and in alot of sizes. I have had good luck with Shredders and Razrs in the rear and my friend had a set of Fast trekkers and they were also a nice tire, never tried or heard anything about the bandits

I've heard bandits need 10psi also. But you'll NEVER get a flat. I like the 22 trekkers on the blaster alot. Not sure they would be right for the raptor though. I'm gonna try a pair of kenda gnarlys on my 'dale to see if theyl'll get up outta the sand better than holeshots.

I have ran the rear Bandit 22" (actually 20.5" tall) XC versions on my Raptor. Awesome trail tire that will slide too. Hook up great, mud no problem, and wore good too. I always ran 5-6 pounds of air and had no troubles with the tire coming off the rim. The front bandit XC is terrible.....the flat profile has way too much contact patch and makes the Raptor wonder at speed. I have a set of shredders now and they hook better, but don't wanna slide...[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img].
