Default Bigger rear tires on 150?

Right now I have 18inch tires on my 150. If I went to 22s, how much more top end would I get? Would I lose a lot of acceleration? If so would 9 gram roller bearings give it better acceleration?

Thanks! Do you think this mod will give me a 10mph gain?

atvmike92,

I don't know if it will give you 10 miles more per hour, those are pretty big tires for the 150 to turn. Maybe if your on a straightaway going down hill.

Nitrox said he had some bogging issues with the 22" tires before he replaced his roller weights.

Good Luck.

SB.
