Carbides? What should I buy? I know there are alot of posts

[ApexerER]

I was trying to make it through the year with my carbides but I just got back from riding today and they are smoked. There is no carbide left. I was planning on the whole summer to make my decision now I have to make it by tomorrow so I can order and have them by this Wednesday. Leaving for another Canada trip on Thursday. I have herd good things about the Bergstom Triple points and I know some people are running doolies. What is everyone running? I need maybe 8" since I have 192 studs. Thank you

I run with a couple of others that use SNOW TRACKERS and they seem to lose a bit of top end...10kms avg. Have you noticeed it and a bit of gas milage, I think its due to maybe a bit of extra drag.

Studboy duece bars with a 3/16 shim.I think they offer a 7.5 inch version.

119 on radar and get 20 miles per Imp. gallon on a good day with 06 APEX GT with SNOW TRACKERS SEMI-EXTREME!!!

I didn't lose any milage and IF!! i lost any MPH it is very minimal and i would be willing to take the slight top end loss for the gain in tracking and cornering. kviper

I agree. 4.5" Deuce's here with 96 studs on a GT. Great set up. Also have the 3/8 shim.

You want more carbide for 192 studs. Not sure if 6 inch will do or not. They may well as 6" Deuce Bars do give 12" per side since they are dual runners.
