what tire / # of paddles ?

[350]

i have a trip to the dunes planned next month and im looking for some paddles but need a lil help first... the mods i have done to my banshee are cpi inframes and open filters ... is there any difference between haulers and extremes because they look the same to me ... which ones do u recommend for agressive dune riding and occasionally drag races ... how many paddles would get me hauling ass and whats the difference between black and blue lable ? any1 have any info on this it would be greatly appreciated thanks.

20x10x10 hauler 9 paddle.... blue label (.125 thickness) rims they are lighter and cheaper then black labels (.160 thickness)

thats the tires i run on my stock but T5's (till i sold those pipes stupid stupid me) anyway it was damn nice..... i was hooked up great 4th gear wheelies no problem.... and in the drags i ate up every 4 stroke, a some 250r's , and a few banshees even..... those tires work great....

370 I was looking at some 20/11/8 10 paddle haulers on ebay, (one city away no shipping) for $130. Do you thing 10 paddle is too much for mine? Dune/Mx port, 30mm carbs, open K&N's with outerwares, lightened flywheel, +5 timing, shaved head, and shearers in a couple of weeks. Mostly draggin, with mild dune rides @Glamis.

I KNOW YOUR QUESTION IS POINTED AT 370, BUT IN MY OPINION I WOULD SAY THOSE WOULD BE PERFECT. I RUN 20" 10 PADDLE HAULERS ON MY TRAIL BIKE. IT SCREAMS ACROSS THE DUNES! IT ONLY HAS A MX PORT WITH FMF'S,K&N AIRFILTER W AIRBOX, AND BORED CARBS.

As 370banshee said, the blue label are the lightest, but these rims they get damaged so quick, u have to be careful on your ride.

BLUE LABELS ARE PERFECT FOR THE SAND

[terboed]

if you like to drag alot, treeshots, hillshots, that kinda thing, go with 22/11/8. if you get down in a hole its to your advantage with the taller tire. extreams are the same paddle hight as regular haulers but they are thicker so they dont bend back as much. 22's float better too. where the 20 would tend to dig down, the 22's will stay on top of the sand, and thats where you want to be.

yeah the blue labels bend. but who cares. their like insurance for your tires. id rather spend the 20-30 bucks on a new blue label than haveing to buy a new tire. oh, and when you buy your new haulers make shure you get them bead+bead buffed. it shaves like 3 lbs off each tire and they are still perdy tuff (havent poped one of mine and ive ran over some hairy shit). less rotating mass = more power.

I Dragged My Trail Banshee All Weekend And Crushed All Kinds Of Drag Banshees (ok Only 2 Drag Banshees Of The Like 10 That Were There) With 20x11x10 10 Paddle Haulers. I Personally Would Go With Those If You Like To Drag And Cruise.
