bbcmudtruck Posted July 28, 2010 Report Share Posted July 28, 2010 I'm trying to gear up for the LS HQ ride in october and will need some tires for the new motor. I weigh 225 and I'll be running a stock frame with a +6 and a drag ported 10mil cub with a 2-4. I understand thats an odd motor/swinger setup, but thats what I got. I've never bought tires for sand dragging so I don't even know where to start. Any help choosing the buff/RO/height/number of paddles etc.. Thanks!

bbcmudtruck Posted August 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2010 So far I've heard 10 or 12 paddle extremes. 21x10x8. Anyone else have an opinion? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul M Posted August 3, 2010 Report Share Posted August 3, 2010 (edited) So far I've heard 10 or 12 paddle extremes. 21x10x8. Anyone else have an opinion? 11 paddle 22,10 x8 extreams would work well also ! I am about your size, right now I run 12s and it gets out of the hole great but lose a little top end speed !with 10s I got out the hole like shit but it pulled hard at the end , I do believe 11s will be the ticket for me once I can afford them , So if I had my choise again i would buy 11s but then again it all depends what gears your gunna run ! for hillshooting I run a 15-43 . with a 2-5 you might need a little lower gearing un less all you are doing is hill racing and dragging IMO ............................................... edited to add with a + 6 a 10 paddle would probably work good , with 12s you would be pulling the front wheels off the ground pretty easy Edited August 3, 2010 by Paul M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
