wrap around tread on tires

I’m a new rider. I learned at Hatfield earlier this week that I ride very aggressively… fast and through the rough stuff. I was keeping up with the guys I was riding with and they were on dirtbikes. We were probably averaging between 30 and 35 mph. I love to ride aggressively and I don’t want to slow down. Here’s the problem: I busted two tires and put a mighty gash in a third (which was brand new!). Is there a tire out there with treads along the sidewall?? I think this would be a better solution than more plyes. This would be a big help if there is. If I have to slow down I will probably sell the RZR Or I’ll just be stuck with riding in areas without rocks :rm_thumbdown: I appreciate any help you guys can provide and any advice you might have. I have a few different riding trips (Windrock, HattyMac, etc) coming up and I’m a little bumbed thinking about having to slow down over rocks and maybe even rougher terrain.

bighorn tires

I have been running bighorn tires for years with absolutely no issues between my rhinos and rzr i bet i have over 10,000 miles no flats to problems. Just recently purchased new bighorn not the bighorn 2 the regular ones second time out had a flat. Rib in side wall. Started to compare older ones and new ones the new ones seem to be thinner on side walls. Any one else having issues like this on new tires.

stock offset

what are the stock wheel offset on the factory wheels on the xp1k and also the 900S. thinking of getting a set of xp1k takeoffs on my 900 4 seater and dont want to go any wider.

Gbc dirt commander questions

I really like the dirt commanders on my 900S, but I wish they were a little taller and I wanna move up to 14" sti hd5 beadlocks. How true are the tire sizes for the dirt commander? Mine are only 25" tall with 10psi in the stock 27s.

If I move up to 29×14, will I need to put in a clutch kit and will it cause axle problems? Will they even fit a stock 900S? I mostly ride trails and only go through the mud when I have to, so I know that’ll minimize some of the problem right there. I do plan on eventually getting the 1.5" offset high clearance arms so that’ll help fitment as well
