Yes it will be a radial tire!

We will be running a set next week when we head out to the Glamis North KOA for a weekend of fun in the sun to see how they do!

Good looking tire Mike, looks like GBC listened to the thread a while back on tires. It seems to have much of what was discussed.. Glad to see GBC stepping up...
Gotta keep an eye on this one...

Looks like a good tire. If its a good tough desert tire, Id try out a set of 28s on 14s on my Teryx 4!

I just talked with Mike, who is out in the desert trying out this new tire. He said it is awesome, he has put 80 plus miles on it so far and its been great. Good traction, good ride, and good steering. Mike will be back Monday with a full report. So far he is very impressed!

Where is the report?

I have 28" baja cross raced in the mint. Did notice floating at 89 mph. want to be safe at 100. can these tires be tested at 100 mph? I think the baja cross tire is way better than big horns (more rim protection - less punctures) but still a utv tire (ballon looking)

What was your car number?

I’ll check out those BajaX’s too for my XP900 if you think that are better than what most run BH’s. I don't go past 80 rev limit, not a racer.

There are a lot of things I can imagine that can cause float @ high speed, but if one were to attribute it to the tire I would think the ratio of the contact area to weight s/b looked at along with the void ratio or # of knobbies, softer compounds, etc….. The testing could vary from car-to-car.

Well its about time. That tire looks good and if it is DOT approved then the carcass or body of the tire is much stronger than the ATV/UTV tires. Running the 32" super swampers on 15' ITPs like I do is nice and fun but a lighter tire would be nice..........
