Default tires you reccomend?

Hey, I got a 1985 350x, and I was wonderin, should i get racinstyle tires, like whare the backs are alot smaller then the front, I know I'll feel the bumps more, but I want to be more stable in the turns, the tires I have now are : 23.5x8.00-11 for the front, and 22x10.00-9 for the back. would it look for for 23'' in the front, and 20" in the bacK?

The "flat top" style tires are the most stable in the turns, I am still shoping for the correct combo between traction and too much traction. I want good grip but I also need it to break loose in a good turn and kick out. I am looking toward the "ITP turf tamer" you can get them in 22" for the rear. I have seen the combo of 23" and 20" tires you mentioned work good for some people. The smaller the rear tire the more low end you will have and less top end. I am running a 12 and 40 tooth combo and if I were to go with the 20" on the back I think the low end would be a touch low(gearing). The Maxxis M932 rear tire look good too.

I had holeshots on a 300 ex and really enjoyed them. They had good bite but you could kick the rear end out pretty easy.

I had some really short lawnmower tires on a 200x. They were awesome. I think they were like 16" in height. It had awesome acceleration but a low top end. It really did need a different sprocket combo with tires that short.
