Save some coin and get an extra set of wheels, at least a rear. Set one up for sand and the other up for hard pack or whatever else you ride. Set your sand wheel up with a solid rotor and you'll save on brake pads too.

VE33 and M5B rears are decent general purpose tires, a bit tall though. I like the MT-16 with a Tubliss for mixed terrain with a fair to large amount of deep mud, S12 or any sand tire for sand, and a Mitas trials for anything rocky and not extremely muddy. M59 front with a Tubliss is excellent all around.

I'll have to look around for the wheels. Would all years GG 300's fit my '10?

Funny thing is, all conditions are present pretty much on all rides. Sandy can turn into limerock in two turns... There really is no primary surface, or one that is ridden more than any other during a day of riding.

We have one track, a vet outdoor mx track that is so hard I could use a street tire! The track is always "blue" with tire rubber. Right around the corner on the same loop is a sugar sand track......

All year rear wheels work, you just need the right sprocket side spacer(pre '03 or '03+) for the wheel. '04+ fronts are the same, pre '04 fronts can be converted with bearings, seals, tube, and spacers from the newer bikes.

You want to ride some crazy surfaces ride in Hawaii, as moto 9 will tell you. I rode on a county MX track in Maui, that was clay baked in the sun to an asphalt like texture. I mean I got off the bike and scratched it with my hand to see what it was. This stuff, when wet, is whats called Hawaiian ice.

Trelleborg Ten Masters for the rear, and I haven't settled on a front yet. Didn't mind the stock michellin on the front though.
