I have an '03 Cdale cannibal. I have rear blue labels with 8 paddles already. Now just looking for some matching lightweight front wheels with some sand tires to lessen the weight and float better. I think for the front, the thicker black or red label wheels will be better for impact if jumping so I don't bend them. I've had blue labels on the front of a banshee and never bent them, so for a good price I would be willing to use blue label.
Let me know what you have and a price or if you know anyone selling any.
WTB: Front Sand Wheels & Tires
I have some fresh gloss black powdercoated moto ITP wheels that are pretty light and strong... just do not have any black backs to go with them and they would probably look sweeter on your ride than mine anyway. Also probably have a pair of the dual rib sand stars I could throw on.
What dunes do you go to? I would have to figure out what I wanted for them because the just the powdercoating was not cheap.

Check craigslist and ebay for honda rims. I picked up a set of red label fronts with razors and black label rears with sand skates on them for $100 and they had never been used.
That's a great deal, hope I can find some for that cheap in good condition. Thanks.
So far the best deal I can find on front sand tires and wheels are from www.rockymountainatvmc.com

Not even ebay comes close to these prices.

Also keep in mind that actual tire dimensions and weights vary among brands, ...so all 21's are certainly not created equal -- you might prefer 22-8-10 in some brands, for example.
I think the Sandshark 22-8-10 is lighter than the Sandstar 21-7-10, and floats better with more contact -- just one example. I have a few machines with 22 fronts, and there is more protection for lighter wheels.

Good info and good idea, wasn't even thinking about that. I would like as light of a tire as possible and better floating so the size you mentioned might be better off. Just trying to figure out also what's narrowest wheel size I could use on a 8" wide tire. I like the idea of more protection for the lighter dwt blue label wheel.
