Sand Stars on my 185s???

[FoxRider001]

I am looking for a pair of paddle tire for my honda 185s, and i was woundering if anyone has had any experience using itp sand stars?

[KASEY]

YOU WOULD BE BETTER OFF WITH AIRED DOWN STOCK TIRES ON A 185,,,, you won't have enough power for sand stars,,,, we run them on a 450 and they are great,,,

[FoxRider001]

you mean a stock tire as in like mud tires??

[acidburn]

thats what they told me when i wanted to put bear claws on my atc200.
and they run fine i lost no power or torque

[pudge]

that is adding a lot of extra stress to the motor and trans. i agree with Kasey, just deflate some stocks tires and have at it

[FoxRider001]

ok, ill borrow my buds sand stars to try them out, and ill bring my mud tires too. How much should i deflate my tires? there carlisle trail pro's.

I'm willing to bet the sand tires are alot lighter than the trailpro. Take all the air out ya want... I doubt it will help much.. those things are like those run flats they use on military vehicles. BULLETPROOF! :lol: :rolleyes:

I have tires on my 185s that say one direction for dirt and one direction for sand. I'll see if I can get a photo of them this afternoon.

i wouldnt be worrying about the weight of the tire, i just think that the stress from the paddles digging in the sand and having to scoop through is too much for a 185, i would think something with more floatation is the way to go

[FoxRider001]

has anyone here actually tried to run sand stars on their 185s?

[RapidRick]

The only paddle tire I ever ran on a 185s were 6 paddle haulers. Very light, low profile, and low paddle height.

One word for he sand stars...............don't

The 200X's have pro wedge II but they arn't for dragging but tractoring around following the leader for the kids and wife.

[FoxRider001]

so, what would you recommend as a good paddle tire for me to look at buying?
