I would say maxxis razr, or realtors. EXAMPLE- (22x11x9) 22= Height , 11= Width, 9= Diameter. Any tire with the number 9 at the end will fit, that is unless it redicously narrow. Some 20x11x9 razrs are a good all around tire.

REALTORS?? Ive had these, hated them. ITP holeshots are pretty good all around, and usualy cheaper than razrs, althogh the tread is very similar. There are also many knock-offs of this tread. Carlisle Turf Tamers are a little different and used for more packed dirt and similer. For shallow sand, the above will work well, but if your talking dunes you have the go with a paddle. For mud, Ive had good luck with Carlisle strykers, itp mud lites, or anything with the wolly bogger design (v bar with side lugs) Check out denniskirk.com or rockymountainatv.com, they both have good selections.

I guess its all opinions. Here where theres alot of shale and coal hills, realtors work great flipped around.

guess that might have been a little harsh, sry, I guess i just didnt like them, although i was probebly trying to out do them (mud, snow...) We dont have any rock, in any softer surfaces they tend to dig down more than forward. That center lug is just to wide.

20x11x9 razrs is what i ran on my 350x....they worked well on all terrain. But if you are planning on riding in sand paddles are a must in my opinion, and straight paddles for me (all i do is hill/tree shots and drags)

get some holeshots or if you like the tread design a pair of wooly boogers.. they hook up a lot more than they look like they would... actually i might even check out a set of stockers from a 450r or yfz off of ebay, you could probably get a decent buy on them too..

Any tire that is light, 18", and on an 8" rim.


H-tracs, Razors, Haulers, Turf Savers, Hoosiers, and Turf tamers.

^^^^ Tires for all applications(in 18" yeup)
