Mixing radial with regular tires

[bansheeigo]

I read somewhere that mixing radial tires and regular tires was bad,why is that?

I want to know because have kenda front max tires in the front and i want to buy 400ex rear tires for the rear,the 400ex tires are radial.Is this bad just for racers or what?

Thanhs for your help.

That only applies to car/trucks that are used on highways,it does not necessarily apply to off-highway vehicles.It is said radials will not track well when mixed with bias/ply tires.Each tire handles road conditions differently.Atv's see very little road use and the tv tire is not designed for road use anyways.I wouldn't worry too much about it.

I personally like the raptor or 450 rears. You can pick a set up cheap and they handle great on the back. They also seem to do pretty good against flats on the trails. Oh and by the way that is one sweet asss shee you got there.

Definitely go with the 400ex radials. They hook hard as hell. Better than any other rear tire I've had on my bike.
