Title: YXZ Paddles
Post by: fabr on October 11, 2018, 08:23:56 PM
I took a wild shot on what paddle to get for the yxz's. I had read all sort of opinions and ,of course,there was no real consensus.  I bought these and I guess I did well. I was concerned it would be too much tire for the stock yxz's. The sand was still pretty damp but dry in the top 2" . I was really,really happy with how they climbed the tallest dunes,and how amazingly well they rode on the pavement getting to the trail. They would slide like a Funco.  :m  Best of all ,they live up to their name-Sand Slinger. LMAO LMAO LMAO Yup ,they damn sure do that. ;D ;D ;D ;D Ran 5 psi and will try 3-4  in the dry sand I hope we have but the wet stuff was a BLAST!

well good to hear! ad said 21lbs apprx. looks like 29x14-14 and i believe it said 14 paddles. so cannot tell from the pic but does the paddle extend down the sidewal area at all or are they on top only like the sand viper paddles?

Depends on how wide a wheel I suppose. I used 10" wide. Slightly down on sidewall.

Gotta correct the above. The paddles don't wrap down the tire sidewalls. The paddles have a slight crown at 5psi.
