Is the Warlock 30" tire lighter than the other 30" tire Skat offered? I know the rollout is bigger on the Warlocks. .
What other 30 tire, these 30x13x14 and the 30 x11x14 are the lightest and tallest true 30 ever used by Skat-Trak.. Some people including skat Trak have attempted to use a 30" dirt tire and after buffing them down they are short and heavy and not even close in comparison to these new ones.

Tim showed me some new Xtreme Skat-Trak 30x13x14 that have a roll out of 97" which is 31" it's Frickin sick how bad Ass these tires have turned out as they will be the true Gold Standard in performance paddles. Nothing else even come close in size or weight it's a no Brainer.

I was thinking of the original 30" Skats when the XP1000 was introduced.
Here is what some one posted on another forum that has the 30x11x14 on beadlock OMF NXG rims
Tire/Rim Spec's:
Rims -- OMF -- NXG series in raw aluminum -- 8" X 14" w/ 4X4 offset for the XP.
Tires -- 30 X 11 X 14 .. .. Scat/Buffed front -- Scat/12 paddle rear.
Weight front tire/rim == 33.4 Lbs. Ea.
Weight rear tire/rim == 34.4 Lbs. Ea.
Tire height/Inflated to 12 PSI on concrete free standing:
Front == 27 3/8"
Rear == 27 7/8"
Front/rear carcus measurement.

Are the 97" roll out tire bigger than those monster tires he had at the sand show last year when we talked? 97" rollout is massive.

I just remember they were huge ass tire. lol!
There's two ways to go now. Either the Extreme blades or the gliders depending on what your looking for. I like the 12 or14 paddle gliders for a great all around dune and flat out fast tire. Or the Extreme blades like 8 or 9 paddles I have run both in the past and I still lean towards the gliders. But either way call Tim Kelly at Extreme Tire in Phx Az at 602 576 1043 he will go over it all with you to help you figure out what you really want to do.

Hey Noel I was on the road all day and responding to you from my cell phone and never saw this. there is some older paddle builds that's not even close to these new Extreme Skats.
The Roll out I saw at Tims Shop were all around 94 to 95+ lately and that makes them all solid 30" tires and Skat measures roll out on all tires after the buff. so that is 15 PSI and these tires should be run generally at 12 or so and they don't lose any rollout to speak of that is barely noticeable at 12 PSI. I will try and get some of the 95+ Roll out for my rears and I want to dig through the pile of fronts to get them up around 97" Roll out.
Like I said before on the tire weight the front buff is like 13 lbs and a 9 Blade rear is 16 to 17 maybe.
The Height is what everyone is looking for Tim says.
Tim has been selling tires like hot cakes all summer long all over the country and he gets great feed back from the customers on how the tires work and what not so if you have any specific questions about certain Dune areas you ride in ask Tim as he has customers world wide.

That sounds like a good time. Damn its cooking here in Phx at 110 lately. Like Tim asks all of his customers to please post up your experience with his Skats weather its a good or Bad Experience. So please let us all know how it goes.

If you're custom making the Warlock carcass', why do they still need to be buffed? Can't they just be made to the thickness of rubber desired? The texture between blades a performance enhancer? Just curious.
They are made to Tims spec and the buffing helps to lighten it up and also for traction. And it preps the surface for the vulcanized of the paddles.
Tim has a complete line of sand car paddles also and has the ability to make his own paddle tire but he won't do it because it will not be as good as this skat build so he says you can't beat em join em.
He doesn't want another heavy molded tire like the STU that just can't compare to the Skats in performance.

Think they will stay exclusive to Extreme or will he sell them to other tire shops/fab shops for resale?

I think skat Trak sells them and some other dealers have them. Some skat Trak dealers might not sell enough Skats to have them though. I don't know his total business.

Guys that understand and want performance buy the Skats and they keep that secret to themselves, trailer Queens buy STUs, IMHO
