If you ever go off-roading, then you know what these are; or hopefully you do. Paddle Tires were manufactured mainly for vehicles that come in contact with sand & mud often; like 4×4’s, Motocross Bikes, & vehicles like that. They are built to have a smooth tire core that consists of a series of “paddles”; or large rubber cups. Since Paddle Tires have a volume that is much bigger compared to the void of a tire that’s knobby, it is less likely to become clogged up with sand or dirt. 

They are honestly kind of weird looking & seems like you won’t be able to drive on them; but that’s what repels the mud / sand / dirt from sticking on the wheel. Paddle Tires should come standard on all bikes for Motocross, Sandrails, & even 4WD vehicles. If you are thinking about getting these tires, be sure you don’t use them on the street because they’re not street legal; & I would hate for you to get a ticket! I’m not entirely sure if it’s Yokohoma Used Tires that produces these or another Manufacturer, but you can use our Tire Request to find it (:
