Will these paddle tires work on my 200x?

[ShaftDrive225dx]

Im am in need of some advise or opinon! I will be taking my 85 stock 200x out to the dunes with my friends soon i have read a couple of threads on here reagarding the topic, but i havnt really seen an actual conclusion! So alot people say that running paddle tires is to much stress on the stock 200x engine or if not will eat the clutch, and i dont want to do that i just bought my 200x and it is in real decent shape all around so id rather run the knobbies and take it easy if its going to wear on my bike... So my question is will these 18x9.5-8 ams 6 paddle tires will work for my bike? I had read that if they were small enough of a tire and 6 rather than a 8 paddle it might work? Any ideas....

Paddle discussions are like oil discussions - there will be no conclusion.

Those will work fine. A little small IMHO but if they're cheap and available or you already own them then they're perfect.

I ran 20x10x8 AMS Sand Snake 8 straight paddle tires on both my stock and Lifan 200X with no issues.

Thank you i appreciate it thats all i was looking for someone who had already used them at one point! I do already have them so ill use them! It was a headace searching through the threds no body had used them on a stock bike for some reason, everyone that had the paddles on any 200x was modded is what they were saying far from stock lol i was going in circles so thank ypu for your help!
