ITP Holeshot XCR
« on: July 16, 2008, 01:21:44 PM »
Hi. I want to get these tires for a Yamaha Raptor 660. Will these tires fit onto the stock rims? The specs for the tires are 20 x 11-9 but the stock tires are 20 x 10-9. If these tires do fit do you think they would do well in loose/soft dirt(not sand),trails, and hills(not dunes). Also how do these tires handle on pavement?

they will fit  :thumbs:

Members here are running them with great results  :thumbs:

None of the HS or maxxis razors are designed for road use.  They are a supersoft compound that will wear away real fast on a hard surface.

Negative, I race with HS GNCCs, similar design.  The turned knobs add side bite for nastier terrain.

They were the standard for GNCC racing for a long time, stay off the black top and they'll serve you well  :thumbs:

I'm running BRAND NEW XCR's on the back of my 700. Oh man.. I can't give them enough praise. They saw their first XC race this past weekend. They did their job and then some! :clap:

Takeoff they gripped like a mo-fo.

I didn't get them to high speed since it was woods racing. but they more than did their job for sure!

No offense darkside, but when a tire is used in a racing series, don't you think that those questions are redundant??

All good, I understand.  Just thinking that the GNCC racing series is about the most abuseive on tires there is. 

Also, since they are near the same in cost, consider the GNCCs.  They are the lightest 6 ply tire on the market and grip like no other.

They also self clean really well for when your in muddy conditions

are they as durable as the xcr's? are they puncture resistant because i do occasionally come across stuff that could easily pop a tire but i usually avoid it but going at a higher speed i might not be able to do that . but this is not my main priority
