I'm new to paddle tires so i'm having a hard time looking for the right ones, any suggestions? i have 2.2 rims. and my backyard is all dirt but not as soft as sand. so would i'm thinking if i get the wrong ones would they wear out faster? also planning on heading to the beach.:)
 
i was thinking about those sand paws but would they wear out on hard dirt quick? i want to try em on my back yard but i mostly want tires for the beach. i currently have dirt hawgs would those work decent on sand I'm thinking no?

http://prolineracing.com/tires/sand-paw-2.0-2.2-sand-truck-rear-tires/ vs http://www.amainhobbies.com/product...3/n/Panther-Paddle-Short-Course-Truck-Tires-2 help me decide anyone thanx!
 
My friend has the proline max paddles on his savage x and runs it mostly on sandy roads at house and grass and they are not showing any wear what so ever after 2 months. As far as harder dirt i would think they wouldn't last as long as a different tire but then again i wouldn't know for sure. I like paddles myself just because i stay on dirt and sand. The ones he has i actually want to get a set myself. The amount of rocks and sand they throw into the air is crazy! Its fun just watching the savy make passes with them on it. Dont gun it directly in front of anyone your liable to put an eye out! Lol
 
ha ha dang. yeah i might get the panthers not so sure just yet tho. also is it bad running on sand? getting it into the carb or as i heard sand can rust up parts quicker since theirs a lot of sand??
