Is the Sandslinger only for sand?

Yes. It is built for dunes and loose sand. On hardpack, rock or mud it grips poorly and wears quickly.

What is the difference between the front and rear Sandslinger?

The 14-inch-wide rear tires are paddles with 25mm tread for acceleration. Front tires use a 10mm tread for steering bite while keeping floatation.

Why are some 33-inch sizes 2-ply?

The 33x11-15 and 33x14-15 are 2-ply to give a larger footprint and more float. That makes their sidewalls thinner than the 4-ply sizes.

Fit depends on your wheel diameter and width. Match the size to your existing rims and check clearance for the wider 14-inch rears.

Can I drive it on pavement?

No. It is not street legal, and pavement will chew through the paddles fast.

What reviewers say

Sand riders rate the Sandslinger as a solid, light paddle tire that floats and hooks up well in dunes. Owners note the trade-off: it is a dedicated sand tire that wears quickly and grips poorly once you leave the sand.
