You didn't mention what you are puting them on. They can get kinda spendy and there are many kinds to choose from. Depending on the power you have driving them, i would get the best for you bike so you dont end up buying them often. the right tire will last a long time. you can overkill on the # of paddles too. if you dont have the power to turn them, you will get discouraged. To aggressive of a tire will lug the motor way down.

The V pattern helps keep you on a side hill, it wont let you skate (slide) your rear end around much. they are a good tire though. If you want to skate, get the straight paddles. make sure you go with a very hard compound on the paddle. The torque a 4 stroke puts out will wear them down fast. I have seen them on warriors and they didn't last long at all. the torque was tearing the cleats off of them really easy. An 8 paddle tire should work well. you want to be able to keep your wheel speed up, so dont go with anything more than an 8 for the 400.
I personally prefer the skat-trak tires. they have a pretty heavy cleat on them. They hold up pretty well. I run them on a slightly modified banshee and they work well. I could go to a 9, but run an 8. An 8 should work real well on both of you machines. Good luck. If you looking for a good price on them, look them up at www.rockymountainatv.com or call them at 1-800-336-5437. they have great prices on tires and rim packages.

Me and my pa plan to purchase 2 pairs of sand tires. We arn't looking for anything fancy at all, just simple sand tires. I was thinking of sand sharks, what are you thinking off?
