Are there any buggy tires out there that can stand up to stickers? There's gonna be stickers in the area I'm gonna be kiting in two weeks and I'm not sure the tires I currently have will hold up cuz they're kinda old worn already. I'm wanting to get some new tires (and tubes to go with 'em), but I want tires that would be a little beefier than normal.

These are the stickers I'll be up against:

I'll post the size of rim I have later, just in case that would help.

we call em sand spurs. Go w/ 4 ply carlisle or kenda rib tires they are thick and heavy.

that is a real good reason to NOT obe!

Thanks! Any tips on what place would sell them at a good price?

i just got my bug up n running, i made the mistake of buying a cheap set from the tractor suppliy co. 9.99 but i didnt evn get the tubes in befor i found all the holes

We have carslile 4 ply's in stock...but you could look into tire slime. Several people have used it in areas that are saturated with thorny burrs or stickers and have had excellent results from it.

Wall Mart / Auto Zone / Pep Boys, etc... carries it and it is super easy to put in...but very messy if you ever have to change a tire or tube.

Here is a link to the product and you can purchase it direct from them too:

Slime is great stuff. Don't use great stuff because it gets hard and uneven
Ok I use it in the wheel barrel tires when new. Saves finding it when the tire is flat!! Slime that is not great stuff. But it is great stuff
My head hurts.

BurritoB, heres where I got mine from

Get your hands on any old tube that fits. Cut the stem off and flatten, place inside the tire as flat as possible. Then install good tube after. the OLD tube acts as extra rubber (two layers in fact) before anything can puncture the GOOD tube.

This is an old trick from my cycling days. Thin fast bicycle tires are very susceptible to punctures. I tried this once and never had a flat again after fighting multiple flats, this trick really worked.

Worth a shot and doesn't cost, well, anything if you have the old tubes.

Thanks for the links and tips!

Burrito,
You want Sure Trail ST 480x8" tubless trailer tires (with tubes) available at Walmart for $20 each. They are treaded with about 5/16 inch of tread and 4 ply. I have tried the Carlisle smooth and ribbed, Duro ribbed and several others, but these are the only ones that stand up. Old Settlers and NEMP are both loaded with stickers and stickers puncture almost anything. Trust me I have had dozens and dozens of flats.

Steve.

Thanks for the tip, Steve! I found 'em at Wal Mart at lunch. Mine didn't come with tubes and the guy said they didn't sell any.
