Holeshot HD's front and rear. Agree 100% with Brad. They freakin rock but they are a bit heavy in my opinion

Stock fronts, 20x10x9 holeshot sr's on the rear. Put them on late last year, and then basicly only rode dunes :lol:. But this winter and so far this spring they hook up way better than stock. They also still seem to ride as good as stock, are light and only 45$ apiece.
So many upgrades, so little money.

If you can borrow a tire groove/sipe tool you can get better traction with the stockers till they are really shot.

I like each one because they are a great improvement over STOCK raptor stuff.. If I had a choice now between the SE raptor shocks, I would take those, but for the price of YFZ ones to the SE ones at the time. YFZ was a better deal..

I got my YFZ tires brand new for $125 shipped to me on rims.  :nana:
