7 mil duner

[kevshiau]

I've tired doing as much researching as I can on the right paddle set up for me but have a hard time deciding what is going to be the best fit. These are the mods that I have 7 mil, dune port, stock cylinders, 38pwk, CPI pipes, race gas, +6 swing arm, fox floats, extended rear axel, +2+1 roll designs a arms. It makes about 90HP and I weigh about 175. I do plan on upgrading the cylinders to servals or cubs down the road. I only ride Glamis dunes and it is a play bike, I want some tires that slide easily. I was thinking of getting 20x10x10 10 paddle Extremes but read mixed reviews on them. Is that going to be too small of a tire? Should I go with a 9 paddle instead?

I currently have 20x10x10 8 paddle extreme but feel like they don't grip enough, and also 22x11x8 8 paddle extreme b2b but don't like how the ride in the dunes.

This setup sounds exactly like my old 7 mill, except I ran 35 pwks. I even ran 20x10x10 10 paddles on it for 1 trip.  On the dunes in Oregon, it wasn't near enough tire.  Hate to say it, but the 22x11s are what I went with, and loved.

Thanks for your response, looks like im going to be sticking with 22x11. I might try them on 10 in wheels if I can find some for a good price.

How many paddles did you run on your 22x11?

No straight paddles are going to slide very well. They’re designed to propel you forward. The more paddle the harder it’s going to be to slide.

I might have to get a +4 swing arm then and see how that works with the 22x11x8. I really liked how my 4 mil turns with stock swing arm and 20x10x10 8 paddle Extremes, I'd like to get my 7 mil close to that
