HOLY Santa Clause Poop ..that's a loaded question. Do a search for "sand tire" and you'll see there are a few threads beating this to death...

For sand I like angled paddles like, sand sharks, sand stars, etc. But straight paddles are better for sand drags, flats IMO. But for everything else I like the holeshot HD's.

and if you do trail riding in the woods or rocky areas obviously you want 6 ply tires, most sand and mx tires are 2 or 4 ply, this thread could go on forever!!

I know that there are lot's of options out there, but i'm gonna talk about what i have experience with...

I think you should get Maxxis RAZR2's they are 6 ply,perform good enough on sand and great on dirt, if by dirt you mean trails,definetly the razr2's will be your best bet... and most likely in 20-11x9 i have them in my raptor and they are awesome, very durable, good on sand, great on dirt and rocky terrain and good on mud too...

In my opinion the best all arround tires! But thats just my opinion dude...
