I had a tomahawk on the front and rear of my 929 awhile back.... The rear works fine for stunting just like any other make. The front tire is another story though. I cooked the tomahawk on almost every single endo approach I made even after it was thoroughly heated up. So off came the tomahawk and into the junk pile it went.

I don't think it should be recommend to anyone... You could get someone just starting off seriously hurt

Re: Tomahawk tires

a few of us in the uk was sponcered by Tomahawk a while back. there ok for stuntin but if you do a few burn outs they lose grip for some reason. and the colour one's peal away from the old tyre under it. use the black one's but not the colour one's if you ride on the roads or do alot of burn outs.

i no longer use them as they just a pain. put a new one on ever week nearly

Re: Tomahawk tires

If I remember correctly it was a set of slightly used black tomahawk t3s.

They were free for me... and like I said it was one of the slickest front tires I've tried. The only thing I remember being worse was a Michelin pilot power slick until it was heated.

I'm sure a tomahawk is fine for cruising around or whatever but endos?....no.
Really..what do you expect out of a 50 dollar tire?

Personally I try to stay with a super soft race compound Pirelli supercorsa 'SC1' or at minimum 'SC2'.
If anyone is getting into endos or drifting that is the front tire to own..no heatup required.

Re: Tomahawk tires

THis will be the first time I do not agree with Mr Kane. Tomahawks **** ***!!
And the company is hard to deal with. I about died several times in one day on those tires. I called the company wanting my money back or was willing to try another set. Thinking it was a bad tire. Needless to say I tried three different sets and they were all the same. **** *** TIRES!!!!
P.S. I am going to go buy a wig, cause Darius splits them. LOL!!!
