My new Viper skis have some tiny 4 inch carbides. I am looking at getting 6 or 8 inch carbides or shaper bars. Trying to save some money and go with middle of the road. Who has the best deal on them and what brand should i get and what brand should i stay away from?
 

I am waiting on a set from DMANN. He was selling a set of 6" carbides for $40.00 shipped. I hope to have them before next weekends ride. If they are good I will order an additional set.
 
i think damaxx has some for like $40. i saw some on flea bay for $40. - $50. the were the name brand ones. dont buy them at the stealer. they are like $60. - $ 80.
 
If you want shaper bars, then stud boy is the only manufacturer that I know of that makes them.

Dennis kirk will beat anyones deal, and they ship quickly.

I think Dennis Kirk only price matches on products over $100.

xtremesledparts.com has some pretty good prices and fast shipping too.

You are correct.

Here is the link for the 4.5" shaper bars. 71.99

With 108 studs, you should be fine with 4.5" carbides, especially with shaper bars.


I just put a pair of woodys 4" extrender trail carbides on my 108 studded 136" venture with 98 srx skis. I works great with those, even with round bars. From my use of shaper bars on my xcsp, I noticed a huge difference in handling from new woody's 6" carbides to 6" stud boy shaper bars. They really make that much of a difference. I ride my venture very aggressively when it is only me on it, and I was very pleased with the 4" of carbides. The 2 or 3" that it had before was lacking, especially since they were worn out.
 
our woody's 6" are $51.00 the 8" are $68.00 the shaper bar are $57.00 for 4.5" $65.00 for 6.0" and $72.00 for 7.5. SWMICHSX the site is new we will continue to make it better. Sorry about your frustration. If you have time give me a call so I can talk to you about the site.
