atv paddle tires

    If you live an area that has a lot of sand dunes or sand races then paddle tires would be the best choice for you. They are different from regular knobby tires because they have larger paddles and not near as many knobs. The front tires almost always only have one rubber rib running through the center of them. They work better for sand because knobby tires just grab the top of the sand, the paddle tires actually dig farther down and grab more. They work great for mud also, because of the large gaps between paddles there isn't anywhere for mud to get caught and reduce traction.

  2. Interesting. It is very neat to see all the different tires and the terrain they are used for. Do you think paddle tires would be a good idea for my car?

  3. Could you find a picture to post? Are you able to replace regular tires with paddle tires? Are there any sand dunes in the area to try this out?
