Default Rubber for Hammerhead 250ss

G'Day Guys, I hope all had a safe and enjoyable New Year. Now after my second outing with the HH 250ss I need harder compound on my tires. So my question is which ones: Buggy done around 60 miles and lost around 40% of tread. The ground is hard; shale, hard dry clay and more shale that cuts into the tread ( gold mining area). The buggy is used in this area only. Thanks.

I don't have a specific brand to recommend, but look for a tire with a tighter tread pattern since it will wear better than one with open blocks.

Thanks GX150, I get what you mean but should I go for harder compound also?

The stock tires on them are not real good. I personally like the AMS Swamp Fox tires for the rear and Kenda Front max are good for the front.
