Pro R paddle choices

Mine is all stock. I plan on a 300 kit from Bikeman down the road so I wanted a paddle I could grow into. I think it will be a good set up for that power.

I'm really loving the Bikeman cams. It has so much mid range pull with no hesitation like the turbo cars. But driving very aggressive it will eat belts.

Is that a clutch setup issue maybe?

possibly, i have yet to fine tune it. I went off the instructions to set up.

Its only when I'm full throttle and beating the crap out of the car. Most duning at 45-65 im at 1/2 to 3/4 throttle.
 
I am running the 32" Destroyer 16 paddles on my Pro R. I started with the Tensors, and they were a good tire, but I was looking for a little more bite. Really happy with these, and love my Price Design wheels

Who makes the skinniest straight cut paddle? Looking for 33" - 35" with a 9-10 paddle.

On another note, If you were going to select a 33" carcass to drop off at Skat Trak to buff/ vulcanize paddles on, which UTV tire would you use?

Tensor? BFG? Toyo?

Might want to check to make sure Skat is still in business. If you want a 33" tire Rogue paddle tires might have what you want.
 
First time taking the Pro R to Glamis for New Years. I went with 35” Sandcrafts 14 paddle on Alba Racing beadlocks and wow the car was so smooth even though the dunes were so chopped car handled amazing I have zero complaints.

I didn’t weigh the combo but they’re super lightweight. I’ll try to weigh them for you.

Alba makes a nice wheel that weight wise is comparable with Price Design, OMF and the other 3 piece wheels. My friend ran them on his X3 Max. They make a non-beadlock version.

i love all the wheels you mentioned, just can't justify that spend lol.
 
MetalFX beadlocks were pretty damn light and priced right. I haven't weighed them (can if you like) but compared to the stock Pro R wheel with the OEM tire, they weigh significantly less.

Has anyone seen a bead blown off one of those bead grips?

I can tell you from experience of trying to get a sand tire off them it is the biggest pain in the ass. Had to take it to a tire shop and even the machine was having difficulty getting the tire off the bead. It took them several attempts.

Most run 10psi or higher so I would not be worried.
