    RG97 those are exactly the tire. I don't know why they worked so well but they had great traction on a lot of different dirt types. Plus you could slide them.

    If you look around on craigslist you could find some flat track tires and rims fairly cheap.
    I got american racers for $100. I have seen a set of 4 for $125.

    Keith I ran the Hoosiers on my quad. You could get them in various compounds. From really soft to firm. I think the scale went "0" compound was the softest and "30" was the firmest. They went in increments of 10.
