    I think there are better tires out there than that. I've been dieing to try the Pure Sports Bandits, they look like great tires.

    I dont think youll be happy with the Bandits. My friend had them on his 250X, and another friend had them on his Tecate 4. Both had to run really high pressure to keep them on the bead, so they rode like crap, and they gave very poor traction in just your typical woods riding, before we ever even hit the mud. And in mud, they are useless! On hard pack Id rate their traction as nothing more than fair.

    if your just talking about handling TURF TAMMERS hands down no other tire handles as good there may be ones with better traction or better wear but nothing will match there handling thats probably why theve been around for 20yrs and most pro's still use them for MX

    I'll have to give it that. The turf tamer has probably been around longer and more widely used over the years than any other tire. They are great for mx, lots of people do still run them in mx.

    I'm running turf tammers now and like them. I think I liked my holeshots better. As long as its a light tire with flat tread I'll run them. Heavy mudder tires ride like crap, slow you down and don't handle that good. They're great for the 4x4s not trikes but if you are looking for supper agressive try the spider tracs. Just my opinion.

    say no to relater, say yes to strykers!
    relaters act like a paddle tire, not the best for the trail, there are probebly beter tires then strykers but there good on the trail and in mud.
