kenda sport radials??

[ky 2stroker]

has anyone here tried out kenda's sport radial tires? they got that odd looking stepped tread pattern with alot of spacing in between the knob rows. it says they're designed for varying course conditions and has a high grip compound and ultra tough casting for puncture resistance. would these be a good for trails and stuff? I know for sure they would hook like crazy in mud or loose loamy stuff with all the tread spacing. but like would they work ok for rocky trails and stuff?

I did have my mind set on some kenda knarlys, but they're out of stock until late next month. and im wanting to use my $20 coupoun before it expires the end of this month. I have to spend $150 to use it and I was thinkin i'd just get a wheel/tire kit I guess. im not lookin to spend to much, just the least I can. but I was wanting to try out some different tires this time. and if the sport radials arnt the best for me, anyone got any recemendations? I dont want any holeshots or razars, looking to try some different types.

I know the dominators are awesome tires for the money, but they just look to much like the holeshots I got right now. and I was wanting to try out some tires with different tread patterns and see how they compare and stuff. how is the tread on the dominators? like are the knobs soft or hard or what? and how well do they wear an stuff?

but I am interested in the dominator fronts. I like how the profile and tread looks on em, where its got 3 rows of knobs contacting the ground, instead of just the one single row in the center like most other front tires. does anyone use the dominator fronts on their quad? how good do they work in the trails and how good do they stick to the dirt and mud?

the dominators seem like their not wearing out too fast and they hook up pretty good. the tread is a bit different than the razr's or even the slasher tires from kings tire, i have razrs and slashers to compare them to

try itp holeshot GNCC's, ive run alot of different tires, GNCC"s hook up AMAZING..$80 a tire, but worth it

they are very grippy medium soft id say and the tread is better than holeshots ,a very light tire that has rounded edges and good wear resistence ,heres a pic mounted one of my banshees to get a better idea of their shape and tread

are those tires still new? I can see the little rubber hairs still on em a lil bit. to me it doesnt look like the tread knobs are very tall? or is it just the picture. but the knobs do look a little bit beefier than holeshots, I know on my regular holeshots I got some knobs that are even tore or ripped off. but the spacing doesnt look to good for loose stuff. how do they hook on hard pack?what about mud or loose dirt or gravel?

[mentally_ill_lt250r]

they seem to hook decent into really loose gravel/ the kind you can sink in, they hook pretty well in river bottoms also, not too sure about mud as i dont go through mud but it rained last time out to the river bottom and we had all kinds of traction. the knobs arnt quite as tall as other tires from what i can tell but they dont wear out very fast. i've only managed to tear off a small chunk of one knob and that was while getting the tires broken loose on the black top
