Where did you get those for that price? My Vector could use an upgrade, that's a great price!

Go them on there site kimpex.ca

The Kimpex Stealth ski is the worst pile of garbage ever made for a snowmobile. DO NOT buy them or run them on your Nytro. They are extremely heavy, they don't turn at all in any kind of loose snow, and those stupid skate blades underneath catch #*$&@ under the snow that you had no idea is even there. I caught a root or a rock under a trail and bent an a arm and the subframe on my old Nytro. I felt bad and didnt want to sell the skis to some suck, so I threw them out.

The split rails are the best handing ski IMO, like power steering and zero darting or push. The only issue is the proprietary fasteners used on the split rails. If you ever lose a piece or something happens to a ski while on a trip, your ride could be ruined instead of being able to get another bolt at a hardware store or even bolting another ski to the spindle.

I wanted to buy the split rail first but at that time I had no answer from them so I bought the Kimpex going to give them a try anyway !
Also according to Royaldistributing.com the carbide from the splitrail and the stealth is the same part number go figure!

it use the twin carbide as a "kneel"

Those are sure different than the old model . The originals had twin keels kind of like the tuner skis from Yamaha but were much better design. I guess I run Aggressive Snow Trackers and they have twin blades that stick down about 1.25” and I have never had a problem. Good luck and let us know how they work .

I don't how big of a difference I will feel, I'm switching from stock skis with snowtracker to mtn tech 43" front kit with stealth skis probably going to switch skis to see how good they really are!

Damn, if you can return the Kimpex before you run them, I highly recommend it. Split rail skis use Skidoo Pilot carbides I believe and those skate blades on the Kimpex are unique to the stealth ski.
