I'm running scat trak 8-paddle extremes on 20x10x8 .160 Douglas rims for general purpose duning and scat trak 8-paddle haulers on 21x12x8 .125 Douglas rims for hill shooting.

I run scat trak mohawks up front either way.

It depends what you want to do. Are you going to play ride or do you want to hill shoot or drag. Play riding sand skate II are good or edges 20x11-8's would work or some stu mini desert tracks. Hill shooting 8 paddle skat track haulers or extreme's the same size would be good. Straight dragging ask dabeechman he can steer you in the right dirrection.

buddies bike, kind of like a hired gun.

i dont run any 70's but i recommend them to bikes under 50 horses. 71-74 are also very popular

rollout is the distance a tire travels in one complete rotation. More rollout=bigger tire
