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.

18/10/10 American Racers & Hoosiers on the rear.

18/6/10 American Racers & Hoosiers on the front.

Still on the stockers  :(  No funds at this time.  Remodeling the house so got to get that done and 52inch lcd and my 35x12.50x17;s for my truck and spend some money on the boat....So i'll be beating the stock ones up for a little while longer  :thumbs:

+1. I bought a set of YFZ rears. If you're looking for a cheap upgrade. TOTALLY Worth it!!!! They rock the stock raptor tires :clap:

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:
