Get the yamaha marginal kit that goes at the front of the skid where it curves and that should be it . SMA-8FA95-00-0009nytro said:Nobuddy has any inputt.....

I picked up the X wheel kit (8 wheel) this fall and installed them. I have only been out once since the snow conditions here are terrible. But, with the crappy conditions I expected the sliders to stick for sure. I rode 70 miles that day and didn't feel them stick at all. I am pleased so far, but I guess they will be put to the real test later when we have enough snow to actually put on a good 300 mile day. I have no marginal wheel kit...don't think it would help all that much.

I am in the same boat, no marginal wheel kit, the most of my wear before was before the tip up wheel everywhere else was mint. Wating on snow too, booooourns!

Yup...thats where my sliders were burning off too. I bought some scratchers last winter and broke one off on the second ride. I was no impressed that I had to drag #*$&@ to prevent slider wear. Hop that these wheels solve the problem. Bring on the snow already!!

the wheels are too small in yamis kit and wear out VERY fast. bigger wheels is the way to go. ie excell
use the marginal wheel kit and port yamaha kit for an extra set of "optional" wheels per the fische. 3200mi and still good hifax.

No fair, you stole my method!

arteeex, You might be able to get more life out of them but I don't think they will make it the whole season. LOL
