Title: Mini-Quad Tires???
Post by: flmedic911 on April 10, 2005, 08:48:41 AM
Hello all!!!

My 5 y/o has a Redcat 50cc quad.  Great bike, cant beat it for the money.  I was trying to find someone that makes a 14.5X7-6 size tire that is more aggresive, kind-of like a mud tire.  We went out in the woods, it was wet and muddy, only got stuck in the thicker stuff, and I think a more aggressive rear tire would really help the quad out.  It has plenty of power to turn the tires.  I need some help here.

Thanks

i think there is a mini quad dune tire....might be better than stock in mud or just out in a little pit or ever trail riding

Thanks for the info, I think a paddle tire would probably get trashed in the mud or on a hard trail.

Thanks for the info!!!

Thanks, Ill look into them, but some of the trails we ride are hard, almost like concrete with dirt on them, so I am still reserved about the paddle tires.  Thanks again!!!!

YOU ROCK!!!!  I like the Lug style tires for the rear tires, and leave the all terrain ones on the front.  Only question is, the rear tire will either be a little taller and thinner, or shorter and thinner than the front tires.  Would the taller and thinner be the best bet or what?
Original tire size is 14.5X7-6

Thanks again!!!!!!!!

PS-would the snow hogs be better for rear wheel drive 50cc quad, or the lug?
