what tire pressure works well in soft sand for draggon? haulers and gliders!
Tell DAve that GAry Armstrong #88 referred you. He'll offer a bigger discount and free shipping.
I run 22" cuz they'll cover more ground in one rotation in a drag race. I usually run about 3.5# air pressure in soft sand. Your engine hp and rider weight will determine how many paddles u should be running. gary

I'm having a hard time believing that the gliders would be better for all around duning, not 300 ft drags, than the haulers! I didn't even know that the gliders existed until doing a little research this year, everyone I know runs the haulers 8 paddle and do very well....
So the lighter paddle, w/more paddles (9 paddle) will flow through the sand more w/the 21/22" X8"?

on big hills with stock motor the 8 paddles will bog it down, but with the shorter paddles of the gliders u will be able to rev out more

.125 indicates the strength of the rim....not sure if it's thickness or not but it is strength. I would get black label rims which are a step higher than the .125, can't remember the number off the top of my head!

.125 are plenty strong for normal sand dunning. .160 for a bit stronger, are you running douglas rims? if not what have you run?
