NEW SKAT-TRAK 30" PADDLE TIRES

[Dacarman]

Hey everyone who is following or reading this thread. So I wanted to express to everyone that I picked my new set of 30" Skat-trak Extremes with CMS wheels today..... getting them new from Ridenow Peoria they are really cool people over there by the way...
For the record. ....
I never turned my head or belief in the design of these badass sand tires and cms wheels They are badass and amazingly light! I just wanted a good matching set that I deserve. I just aired them up to 15 psi and measured rollout the exact! let me say it again the exact same method! I measured the odd ball sent back set and my buddies set.
Lay the soft tapemeasure on the floor flat and straight set the tire over it straight and center reach down and bring the tape up center of tire and measure rollout... 360 deg of center of tires.
The front right and front left where well in skat-trak specifications at 1/4 " difference
The rear right and rear left where well in skat-trak specifications at 5/16"
So I'm stoked and am dialed ! Ready to go have a blast in the dunes. Yeah!!
Thanks to the people that designed made my awesome true set of skat-trak paddles.

How much did that setup cost you from ride now? I'm looking to buy some this week.... (Wheels and tires)

Getting a true roll out measurement is hard to do with paddles on. Your best bet to get an accurate number is to set the paddle on a piece of 2x4 to get the paddles off the ground and measure the height of the tire from the 2x4.

Diameter x Pi = circumference (EX: 30 x 3.14 = 94.2)

Those tires and wheels that Ridenow sells are from Tim at Xtreme Tire and Ridenow buys them for resale. Glad your happy . Designed and Built by Xtreme tire and Skat-Trak. Tim owns the molds and had them made for his company to build the largest and best UTV tire for Skat-Trak Paddles.

We use the corner of a wall also with a straight edge. As long as they are not on the car sitting on the ground.

Yes I know the entire story man.... like I said I never gave up on the badass design... I just wanted a true set, which my buddies over at ridenow hooked me up with. Thanks to Tim for selling Ridenow a true set with great rollout dimensions. Wish my first set where like this but I'm thankful to have this set 100%

I used a 2x4 and level.

I called Tim and was wanting the 30x13x14 skat extreme 10 paddle. I asked if they were 4 ply and he said he only sells 2 ply but are rated at 4ply. Are these what warlock wrote about? or is there a true 4ply skat extreme? if so where can I order it?

 

[Sandman365]

Call Utvinc. At least in the past, their 10 paddle 30" skats were 4 ply.

Meaning higher in front than the rear? 14-12?

No meaning run the scoops backwards. As in run the left tire on the right side and vice versa.

haha, gotcha.

 

[Rynomx785]

haha, gotcha.

I've never heard of anyone doing it but after hearing how soupy it was out there over New Years, it may not be a bad idea. lol

 

[dezertBandito]

Maybe just run stock tires then?

 

[Rynomx785]

I'd still run my paddles. Run them with more air pressure than normal first. If it feels like there is too much bite try them backwards like he said. Can't hurt anything.

 

[Rynomx785]

You may have a few people look at you like you are a dumbass though.

 

[dezertBandito]

LOL, I feel like im being trolled.

 

[Rynomx785]

LOL, I feel like im being trolled.

LOL Run them normal. Start with 3-4 psi higher than you would with dry sand and go from there.

 

[crazywatson]

I've seen people run them backwards but not on purpose. Lol Not a bad idea. How much diffrence does it make?
