I have seen pics of a couple guys using them in the sand. Can you slide with these tires? And what psi for duning with them? From what I understand they balloon up. Thanks in advance

I wouldn't say there are crisp handling. Other than that they are awesome.

I've rode a couple of bikes with these in the dunes and didn't see the benefit of these over SLS's I run. Sure you can slide with them. The balloon effect makes the gearing taller on the top end so depending on your riding style you may like that.

They are more for hard pack. They tend to spin to much in sand. I have a set of pro wedge 2 They work great with their purpose. My buddy had zippers and they didn't hook as well had more fold to them weaker rubber

I have friends that run these and love them in the sand. They are not drag racers, but mostly hill climbers. The have good ground clearance due to the size. They also will never dig a hole like paddles will. With a little bit of wheel spin they always seem to pull up on top of the sand instead of digging down. I say get them if you want a smooth riding tire that is good for tree shoots and some hard dirt, but not for aggressive riding which includes sliding around.

Awsome traction on low H.P quads/trikes in the sand. But they are tall. Love em on my 350x. Hate em on my 250r.
