Best Tires (2024)

[Up north rider]

Whoever wants to give their two cents on what tires they think are the best tires, specifically for the banshee, would be awesome. Grip is the main objective. I know this has been discussed on here, but the threads are quite old. There is a lot of new tires on the market since 2005 lol. Plus, tires are a fun topic anyway!

CST Pulse are good.

All of the Razr looking tires are trash.

By razr looking tires, do you mean xc master, k9 classic, etc.. ?

[Up north rider]

CST pulse 10 or 11 wide

  I personally like and currently use Kenda Klaw XCR 6 ply front (20x7-10) & rear (20x11-9) tires and they work excellent in all types of terrain that I ride in. As an added benefit the rear tires can be used in 2 different directions. One direction for soft surface and the other direction for hard surface. When it comes time to replace these I’ll be purchasing another set in the future.

They make a few different ones. What ones worked good for you?

 I own a set of CST Pulse HT’s mounted on my stock wheels and I have a set of Kenda Klaw XC’s mounted on my alba racing beadlock wheels. I have only owned the 2 sets of tires for a couple months now. I love both sets and it’s really hard to pick which one is better because they both perform about the same on the type of terrain that I ride on. Good luck on which ones you choose to purchase Up north rider.

Thanks for the input. I currently have a fairly new set of kenda kutters. So far I like them, but Im always looking for tires that people seem to like! 
 

The kenda klaws and cst pulse seem to be popular choices.

Question everyone. My 03 stock banshee rim says 10x6 and these new tires i got say 10x5.5 on them… will these work? Or no.

[JerzOutlaw350]

@DonJuan I’ll break it down for you. With a 10x6 wheel. The 10 means the rim size and the 6 means the width of the rim. Here is an example. Let’s just say you bought a tire in this size 18.0 X 5.5-10. So it would work like this. The 18.0 would be the outside diameter of the tire and the 5.5 would be the width of the tire and the 10 is the rim size. So if the new tires you have bought say ??.0 x 5.5-10 then YES they will fit on your stock banshee rims.
