    ... I'll tell you what ... the "Original" Gateway Wooley Boogers were one of the first and probably the best trike mud tire ever made. I'm not talking the crap Cheng-shin copys - I'm saying the original, made in the USA ones.

    woo'l boogers are awefull, but for some things they work well. something w/ no suspension would be good w/ the big bulgy things on them. the 22" wooleys baloon out to like26" at speed, i'ce seen them rip 2 of my buddy's heel geards off, it was hillarious

    I hated woolyboogers until I bought a trike with them. Believe Me I'm an 18' holeshotty kind of guy, but when the mud gets deeper than 10" (LOL) I love my WB's! Plus, they do expand for top end!

    I run the shredder holeshot copies. I like them alot. the 350 has the 6 ply shredder "XC" and the 200x has 4 ply shredder "RA"s on it. both in 20 inch size. Looks great and they work great and they were inexpensive.

    I have a set on my 225dx which are studded (800 screws)and they do alright. I think they weigh to much and I don't really care for the look either but they do look cool with the studs in them.I really like the blue duro's and the Maxxis Razr 2's

    I run stock radial tires doring winter because they get good traction but wear out easy if you use them doring summer and doring summer i use bandits and holeshot. I use to use razer 2 and i won't ever buy them again i could never get traction when i wanted it i was always spinning.

    Can't or Won't?

    wow, are you sure that that price isnt for both tires mounted on .125" rims?, cause i got my tires(razrs) for 50$ a piece unmounted from a friend and at the time, that was a little high, but i like to deal with local guys....they are def. not 119 a piece for sure, you got it wrong...

    I hate those dang wooly boogers. Last trike I bought (atc125M) has 25 inchers on it! I'm a big fan of the Ohtsu ProAms for the 185/200S (still available from chaparral-racing.com). 22" Kenda Gnarly seems to be a dope tire for the 250R/350X.
