    Sand Tires

    I am heading out next weekend to ride at winchester bay I have a set of paddles but they are just the cheapy geckos. Im not satisfied with there hook up. I talked to my parents and they said if i give my dad the set of geckos they will go out and purchase me any set of paddles mounted on rims! I am most interested in buying Skat Trak Haulers. Im not sure if I want to get the 20" of 22" paddle tire size. I want a 8 paddle i know that for sure. My riding type is like: trails, jumping, a few tree shots and dragging up hills against my buddies! I have heard that the extreme haulers were beter but i have never figured out the difference between the two?? These set of paddles are going to be mounted to my 85' 350x. It has a super trapp exhaust, k and n filter and a jetted carb for performance mods.

    i think you are making a mistake with the haulers,,, if you can't live without them,,,i will sell you a new set i just bought ,,, one trip on them ,,, i am giong to get a set of sand stars,,, i have 4 sets of sand skateII's , 2 sets of haulers, and a set of sand stars ,,,, on my 350x the sand stars work the best by far,,,,

    Sand Stars will let you turn easier, and they are a very good tire, I will be getting a pair sometime this week!!!!!!, I bought new geckos from a friend for $30 bucks so thats why I have them, Im certian from what I have read sand stars will climb everything haulers will.
