Destroyer Customizer SPEED UTV – DIABLO
Choosing the right paddle
Paddle tire choice is determined by a number of factors. We recommend going with the largest tire size you can fit on your vehicle. In some cases especially with utility vehicles, you may need long travel suspension for the paddles to clear the fenders. Next is the paddle choice. For lower powered vehicles the Slider paddle type may be the best choice because the Slayer paddle is too aggressive.
What do the terms Underpaddled and Overpaddled mean?
Underpaddled is just what it sounds like, the paddles on your tire don’t move enough material for your vehicles’ horsepower. The reduced traction will cause you to spin out when accelerating from a dead stop or in the turns and ultimately this will slow you down. Overpaddled on the other hand is where the paddles dig in too much for your vehicles’ horsepower. This results in slow, sluggish movement and can feel like your belt is slipping. This also will result in higher engine and belt temperatures due to the added drag on your system. Please follow our horsepower chart to tailor the right customized tire/paddle setup for your vehicles horsepower and driving style.
