hey, i need some new back tires, i ride alot of pit, dirt trails, occasionally tight wooded trails. my question is what tire would best fit me? and what are the pros and cons of 20" verses 22" ?? i dont really need a high Ply # BTW cause VERY rarely encounter sidewall collisions.... thanks alot guyss!!!!!!

 

I just recieved the 23X7X10 holeshot XCT front tires, and absolutely love them. They realy changed the handling alot.

I was kinda iffy about the 23" hiegth, but now I understand it's point. The 1" taller hieght lets it roll over stumps, rocks, and such with alot more ease.

Now to the back, I am getting the XCT's for the back as well, although I like the razors as well.
The 20" or 22", what I'm looking at is the 20" tires are three pounds lighter each compare to the 22", but I need the 22" for ground clearence. Now I'm told the 20" are realy 21" over all, and if this is the case I sure would like the 20" ones.

The reason the lighter tires are so attractive is that you will accellerate faster with 3 pound lighter tires.

The XCT's not only have better side wall protection, but have a harder rubber compound wich should make them last a bit longer. Although if you are a serious MX racer the MX holeshots are a better choice.

 

Get 20" Razr's on the back and for the front get 22"

 

hole shots are the best. 20 on the back, 21 or 22 up front. the new holshot xcr is supposed to be super rad. good the the riding style you describe.

 

thanks guys, i think im gonna go with Holeshots on Douglas aluminum wheels. i think just back for now cause i dont got the money for both. with my old back tires im gonna stud them for winter riding to have fun. hehe.. thanks
