Should I get 9" or 10" wheels?
I'm planning to get some new rear tires and wheels for my Suzuki Z400. I'm probably going to get the ITP Holeshot HDs. I mostly ride on trails, rocky creek beds, and dirt roads. I can't decide if I should get 20x11x10s or 20x11x9s. Any idea which combination will be lighter? Does rim size effect handling at all? I understand that the larger rims may be more prone to denting. What do you recommend?
Thanks
Doug

Bigger rim = lighter. If you had the hd tires mounted on 9 inch rims weighed them and then weighed the hd's on 10" rim the hd's with the 10" rim would be lighter.
The bigger the rim the less flex yo uget in the tire. So a bigger rim will make it less tippy.
A smaller rim will give better side bite.
