Best Tire for a Hayabusa
« on: February 19, 2013, 09:51:48 PM »
So, I read all of these post and can't make up my mind as to which tire to buy.  I will be running a stock Hayabusa.  Seems like the 1100 paddles would work or should I go with the 1300.  What would you recommend?

Has anyone tired these 1450 Desert Trak Sand Tires or similar?  Seems like this type of tire would be good for me because I only make it to the dunes once or twice a year.

+1 to what Fabr speeks.  Also, what wheels and what brand of tire.  Not a lot of choice on 11's, but there are some serious weight diff in brands.  I know Dsrace had STU 1300 on 12 wide wheels with his busa 2 seat car.  Not real happy with how slowly it spun them up.  He sold the tires.

for the tire i would say light weight wheel like the thin douglas or cms ( custom metal spinning), 1100's aren't bad but if you have the money get the 1300 sand tires unlimited or a 12" rim with stu 26 blaster

My car is somehow going to look allot like DS's car.  Should be some where around 1100 lbs but that is what everbody claims.  I have a tendency to make thing heavy.  I don't want to do the turbo.  Stock engine for now anyway.

Yes I need to find wheels and tires for this thing.  It will have 5x205 bolt pattern which seems to limit the wheels I can choose but I except to be able to get the 3" offset rims more if I can them.

The reason I ask you guys is I don't have the funds to buy things twice.

Anybody run those paddles that have the center ridge so you can also drive on hard pack?

Thanks,

So this would be the tire?

Is that a good deal?

I've wondered about the desert trac type tires myself. Personally don't know of any reason why they wouldn't work OK tho.enemy,I think used the v1100's quite well on a similiar car. has turbo also. IMO,most cars are actually over tired..

I'm running those sand viper 1100 with zx12.  Same tire as enemy, and I think DS went too.  If you got enough torque bigger tires are good, but bike motors dont make torque.  Dont bog it down.  Sandparts.com will make you a good deal on tires/wheels.

Enemy been abusing the crap out of those 1100 chinese paddles for 3-4 yrs.  He spins them pretty damn quik and still gets plenty of traction.  And videos to prove.  LMAO LMAO (stupid wing trunk)
