Good bashing tires?

[Pope]

Wondering what a good tire for bashing in sand and gravel would be. They have to be cheep though.

dirt bonz..................................

Honestly, I have only used the Terra-Pinns so far, but I like them in loose dirt and gravel. It seems like anything with lots of small "pins" like the Dirt Bones would work well.

i run dirt bonz and they work pretty good and they are cheap on ebay

bowties are a great bash tire and mine have lasted almost a yr of abuse.

Badlands are the best choice if your running that engine in it, most others will only last a couple tanks.

I'm running the dirt bonz and like them but am gonna try the badlands at some point..

I have bowties now so I will pick up a set of badlands this week for the new motor.

i love my badlands. pavement seams to chew them up, but that what i get for running it on the street! they work wonders on the grass and dirt.

i can give you a set of zombies if you're interested pope. i didn't like 'em at all, and i'm pretty happy with my mashers for now.

hmm.. horizon says they're "temporarily out of production", maybe they'll be back a little stiffer.

 

[Combuster]

that was one of the reasons i didnt buy the zombies becuase they say the side wall is to soft but if you tape them and use molded tires i heard they are pretty good tires

i ordered a set of badlands my self, I'm REALLY stumped on what rim to get..

I'm thinking 17mm 1/2" offset Maximizers or 17mm 1/2" offset dish ??

 

[Combuster]

black 1/2 offset dish

 

[xll-SavageX-llx]

black 1/2" offset dish

Got a link ??

Why isn't Pro-Line making dish wheels in black anymore? All I see on their site is white and yellow.

badlands FTW

 

[wildchild27]

bowties/dirt bonz are great tires ive had my bowties for over a yr now and they still have decent tread on them yet

I would stay away from the zombies if you are running a modded mill. they are too soft and wont grip on any surface.

+1 on the badlands

+1 yup i don't understand why they don't make em in black,i'm tired of dying my white ones black.

I saw some Pro-Line velocity wheels in black at a LHS in Redding but I'm not sure if they were the right size. When I saw them they looked the right size and I thought about grabbing them if they were. I figured they might have been on the shelf for a while, maybe Pro-Line used to make them in black? Either that, or they were not the right size.
