The brand-new Duro Scorcher is one tough ATV tire! Designed with a unique tread pattern for maximum grip, acceleration, traction and water evacuation, the Scorcher is available in a number of sizes for many applications. “Baby needs a new pair of shoes!”

ave you seen those new ads? Duro Tire is on the move and they’re announcing it in an edgy, no-fooling-around way. “Baby Needs A New Pair Of Shoes!” Indeed. At Duro Tire, it seems, it’s a whole new day, a whole new way and a whole new world of ATV tires. The 2006 Duro lineup includes some specialty ATV tires available nowhere else. Just look at those ads. These guys are serious about ATVs, more aggressive than ever in the market.
     Need some proof? Take a look at the brand-new Duro Scorcher, an ATV tire designed to both perform and intimidate your competitors at the same time. You haven’t seen anything like the Scorcher before, and it’s coming straight from Duro.
     The Scorcher is a pretty special ATV tire. That tread pattern alone should open up some eyes. Pretty cool looking, and definitely take-no-prisoners nasty, isn’t it? It’s distinctive, and so is the Scorcher. This is a tire with a mission. The new Duro Scorcher is designed especially for those rough and tumble hard-pack and asphalt-surface ATV racing situations, and according to the guys at Duro the Scorcher is designed to dominate the competition. The Scorcher is available in a variety of sizes, too, so there’s one for just about any application.
This is a purpose-built ATV tire. The Scorcher’s tread pattern immediately brings to mind a grooved racing slick, the sort of tire you’d expect to find on a Saturday-night Special Sprint Car, only smaller. With that unique tread pattern and the compounding to match, the Scorcher should be ideally suited to the red-hot TT Racing Series.
     And as we said, the new Duro Scorcher is available in a variety of sizes for a number of applications. There’s a 21 x 7-10 version for all those smaller 5.5-inch rims, and for the wider 8-inch rims there are two more Scorcher options, a 20 x 10-9 and a 22 x 10-10. Both of those bigger Scorchers feature a solid center strip for hard-hitting, solid acceleration, too.
     Either way, small Scorcher or big, these new Duros feature big, meaty and extra-large tread blocks for a maximum contact patch, maximum traction and they’ll really dig in and bolster the cornering grip. Directional grooves, measuring an impressive 12/32-in. deep, provide excellent water evacuation, too. Wet track or dry, the Duro Scorcher is designed to get you there fast.
     And yes, Duro still offers all those other ATV tires you’re familiar with, the Buffalos, Red Eagles, X-Tremes, Excavators and the rest. But this season they didn’t stop there. With brand-new tires like the Scorcher added to the lineup this company is on the move, and your first move is to call your Parts Unlimited rep. The new Duro Scorchers are in stock now. “Baby Needs A New Pair Of Shoes?” For serious hard-pack or asphalt ATV racing, here they are.
