Anthony133 Posted November 15, 2012 Report Posted November 15, 2012 Itps are more expensive but ive never owned either set. Ill be ridding on mostly dirt. what is the better tire set? grip and overall. Ill be getting all 4 tires new. Quote
Nightmare Posted November 15, 2012 Report Posted November 15, 2012 They both suck. Checkout some kendas or ohtsu's. Quote
locogato11283 Posted November 15, 2012 Report Posted November 15, 2012 Junk vs. Junk... Which do you want? You want good hooking trail tires? Here you go.. http://farmandsandtoys.com/partdetail.asp?partid=174 Quote
sheerider11 Posted November 15, 2012 Report Posted November 15, 2012 If I were to run dirt tires I'd look into the Dunlop line. The have a shit load of choices and fairly cheap. The ambush seem okay for the price too Quote
Nightmare Posted November 15, 2012 Report Posted November 15, 2012 My spelling sucks but i had the right idea Quote
locogato11283 Posted November 15, 2012 Report Posted November 15, 2012 You don't want the Ambush for trail riding. They are a thin walled tire. Quote
sheerider11 Posted November 15, 2012 Report Posted November 15, 2012 You don't want the Ambush for trail riding. They are a thin walled tire. Oh good to know, thanks. Quote
RadarRacing Posted November 15, 2012 Report Posted November 15, 2012 I like holeshots and have worn out a few sets i think rzrs suck bad. Kendas are ok but they are heavy as hell. I have 2 sets of those too , i have ridden all of the tire listed. Ambushes have no side bite and slide too easy as well as spin easy. Quote
IceAlmeida Posted November 15, 2012 Report Posted November 15, 2012 ya they both suck balls these itp holeshots are junk lol Quote
Vicstuff Posted November 15, 2012 Report Posted November 15, 2012 my sti's hook up good and work well on trail for me Quote
locogato11283 Posted November 15, 2012 Report Posted November 15, 2012 I've run every major dirt tire there is in my search to find the hardest hooking tires for hillclimbing. ITP and Maxxis are overpriced, overrated and underperforming. Plus most of them are heavy as fuck. STI Dirt Trax and CST Ambush work great cut for hillclimbing but lack side to side bite necessary for trail riding. Kenda Klaws and Knarlys are alright tires for the money with a pretty hard rubber compound. I'd suggest them for any road riding and some trails. If you want the best tires for the money for every day riding, Ohtsu MR501 ate the ones you want. They hook hard and wear well. Quote
