Does anyone have information on the new pro armor sand tires. Like how much they weigh. Website says the fronts are 30x11x14 for $149.99 and Rears are 30x13x14 for $179.99.

I put 60 miles on the 30" Pro Armors yesterday, at Glamis, on a XP 4 Turbo.

I weighed them as well.

Front: 23.20 lbs
Rear: 32.95 lbs

I mounted them on 8" wide front, 10" wide rear NON beadlock Polaris Lyte Forged dune wheels (15.75lbs F, 16.8lbs R).

The look like good quality, not cheap like STI paddles. I'm no paddle expert, but I have owned Skats and STU's on my previous XP 4 10000. The Pro Armor has a lot of paddles, which made it harder to slide the rear around, I might have them stagger cut. The Turbo pulled them no problem, the true 30" was bigger that my previous 2.85" STU's and floated better.

Overall I would recommend for a Turbo, they are lighter that a GMZ Sand Stripper XL, even with twice as many paddles.

Yes, a tire will always mount on a skinnier wheel it will just change the profile of the tire. Should round it out a little instead of being so flat. But it will definitely change the characteristics of how it performs. Good or bad that will be up to you. My front buffs are 12" wide and I run them on the stock 6" wide front wheel and they're fine.
