Hi all, Relatively new to the whole quad scene. Just went to the track for the first time last week (breezewood proving grounds). Anyways, from what I was told I definitely needs some new tires. Apparently my current ones are setup for GNCC and are very large and wide. I will be doing mostly track riding at breezewood. I guess I was just looking for some suggestions on tires (size, brand, style, etc..) any help is appreciated. Cheap is also good.
For MX:
20" front tires on 10x5 rims. Maxxis RazrCross fronts are some of the best traction & overall longevity set of tires out there.
18" rear tires on 8x8 beadlocks. I'm a huge fan of Goldspeed MXR2 rears as the traction in the corners is great. Maxxis Razr MX - Orange labels are great too.
these are what I ran this year so far. For $40 per front and $50 per rear, plus now you get $5 fast cash per tire. So for $180, free 3day shipping, plus $20 back to use on your next motosport purchase, you can't beat them.
pretty much what the other guys said, 20 up front 18 out back. I run the Maxxis Razr Xm setup. the fronts have a little deeper lug than the Razr cross which helps in loamy/sandy conditions. The rears work like a dream, wear slowly, and are nice and soft, perfect for MX.
All depends on what your wanting. The old saying you pay for what you get. If you just want an inexpensive mx tire that will hold up and get several Motos out of them go with a Sun F tire this is a manufacture that makes several other companies tires and just private labels them, plus there priced right. If your wanting a true race tire and performance matters and your wanting lap times to prove it go with a Maxxis or a Goldspeed tire. Just my opinion because I think we have tried most of all of them.
I'm gonna start MX on a very short track indoors and wanted to see if I could run 9x8.
