I just purchased a set of front hoosiers D12 Compound. $82 and change each. Rears I have been using the Tri-Trac tires and they seem to be good. Not sure on the compound, they are a little harder then the fronts.

Oh man, I did a full write-up about a year ago on the old 450rtech.com site. I think it's all gone right now though. Heres the difference in the stock plates on my old 05 compared to Barnett Dirt Digger clutch http://www.offtopic.forum/uploads/imported/2012/05/sspx0297-1.jpg The longer spring is the Barnett spring http://www.offtopic.forum/uploads/imported/2012/05/sspx0292-1.jpg

Oh nice! put up a picture of them and I'll let you know if i think it would fit! And yeah its me! I figured it was you too. lol

I think the reason I found the site has something to do with you sending me the link to it on Facebook. I'm pretty sure anyway. lol You will have to look at your arms first. If all of the mounts are the same, then they will not fit the oem ds450 arms because where the shock mounts the inside of the mount does not go straight down to the arm, there is a little curve to it so the square block can not slide down far enough to line up with the bolt holes. You will have to check out your arms and see if they are like that or not.

Depending on track conditions and and the size of track, you will need different tires. 10" rims all around. Less tire roll. If you already have long travel arms, you could just put your stock shocks on to lower it. Make sure your rear end is soft so your weight can transfer to the rear tires for traction instead of just spinning. If the track you are racing on is very loose and dirt like, you will want very soft compound hoosiers, they will hook up much better. You do not want to be spinning your tires in the corners, I've learned this. Use your clutch if you have to to keep them from spinning, once your tires brake loose, you might as well move over and let the guys pass. Most tracks will not require hoosier style front tires, but trust me, if you have them, they will pull you right through the corners. knobby tires have much less surface area contacting the surface of the track so they will just want to slide and if they slide, then you will want to slide your rear end around to correct for it. Once you start sliding out, you will spin before you know it. If you are really unlucky, the rears will hook up when your sideways and you'll flip. I have learned that too lol Anything else, just ask!
