Quadatic20 Posted May 18, 2009 Report Posted May 18, 2009 (edited) OK - I am going to Little Sahara - UT (dunes) to ride for a week (May30-Jun6)....22 quads going. I have two sets of paddle tires to choose from: 1. Paddle Masters (straight) 20x11x8 on Douglas Blue Labels OR 2. Kenda Trakkers (v) 20x12x9 on Stockers Need some duners opinions. ***I can post pics later if needed*** Edited May 18, 2009 by Quadatic20 Quote

Do you have any idea what the actual circumference of the tires are when mounted and inflates are (also known as roll-out)? :geek: Quote

Both are 8 paddles one straight and the other V. The set of Paddle Masters I borrowed they are on 8" rims, the Kenda's (never been mounted) were given to me FREE and they are 9" I have a choice of the two, one set will go on the Banshee the other on my YFZ. My buddy that is going is buying a set of 20X10X10's either ITP or Kenda's,,,but he is on a YFZ450... Edited May 18, 2009 by Quadatic20 Quote
Quadatic20 Posted May 18, 2009 Author Report Posted May 18, 2009 (edited) Here are my choices..... Bike = 2001 - Fresh Top-end (1hr on it)/ProCircuit Platinum pipes/VForce3 reeds/K&N-no lid/Full-YFZ front end/Mikuni 28mm.../no porting. #1 Paddle Masters and #2 Kenda Trakkers Edited May 18, 2009 by Quadatic20 Quote
vegas banshee Posted May 18, 2009 Report Posted May 18, 2009 i would choose the kendas because paddle masters are kinda heavy IMO Quote
Quadatic20 Posted May 18, 2009 Author Report Posted May 18, 2009 Thanks --- I was trying to avoid buying a set for one trip, I live in IL and ride MX and trails... Got Razrs and ITP's 18X8 but NO PADDLES... Quote
Quadatic20 Posted May 18, 2009 Author Report Posted May 18, 2009 i would choose the kendas because paddle masters are kinda heavy IMO Looks like most the Banshee's run 8-9 paddle haulers? Quote
Duneman101 Posted May 18, 2009 Report Posted May 18, 2009 I would just go with the trakkers... they aren't the best option, but if you don't want to pony up any money, they are better than the masters. Quote
GrMeyer Posted May 18, 2009 Report Posted May 18, 2009 the haulers are the only way to go...both those tries are heavy....contact ORTires.com on Ebay and get some haulers... I have ran his tires for two season and my brother has had his for three season...had a paddle come off and he sent a new tire out free of charge.. all we had to do was send him a pic. http://stores.ebay.com/Ortires-com_W0QQssP...fsxQ3asstQQtZkm Quote
