Choosing The Right Tire
Determine the overall track conditions including the starting line
- If the conditions vary from hard-packed to loose loam, you’ll likely will want a versatile tire like Dunlop’s MX34.
- For hard terrain, the MX53 is your best choice.
- For soft terrain, mud or sand, Dunlop’s MX14 is the tire of choice.
- If the conditions vary from hard-packed to loose loam, you’ll likely will want an intermediate terrain tire like Dunlop’s MX34F front & MX34 rear or a combination of hard track front & intermediate rear (MX53F& MX34).
- If the ground has a cushion to it, rutted with soft berms, you probably need a soft terrain tire that will penetrate through the loose soil. Dunlop’s MX34 is an excellent choice.
- If the conditions are strictly soft deep sand or mud, you might consider a specialty tire like the New MX14.
- Let the dominant condition dictate your choice after considering the start section.
