I am definatly not getting any excessive tire spin, My DS Digs ruts in the ground on launch, the V just hooks up and goes. Only way I can get the tires to spin on launch is by leaning over the handlebars!
I am 6'5 300+ pounds....

None as of yet, it will have HMF duels and jetted sometime this week when the stuff arrives *finally* heh
I see what you are saying Shotgun, for 38$ each I will try it with the 18's and post on the outcome. If it does not work out, who cares I will throw them in the pile with the rest of my ATV tires[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
It has the 22" itp holeshots on it now and like i said it hooks up great.

I think you'll be much happier after you get your pipes,and jets installed,along with a air box mod. Then of course clutching will also get your power to the ground better. After that, I think you'll really like the stock 22's.

Try to hook up with OLDMANWHEELER, he has a set of carbon fiber wheels, ( problem with fit if I remember right ), & tried to put the hubs you mentioned, on the V to make the the wheels fit, & there was a problem with the axel nut... just hate to see ya spend money on hubs, then have to have special machineing done ...WAM

Yeah I researched the Carbon Fibre Beadlocks made by Hiper Technology. They are cool except the beadlock ring comes in clear and they sell you stickers to put on them to color co ordinate.
I for one dont want stickers on my $200+ beadlock wheels. Those are the guys that told me to get 400 ex hubs to get the 4/110 wheels for the rear of the V.
I like the billet polished look of the Douglas Ultimates and I cant see how a colored sticker will last more then 10 minutes when riding a ATV[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Yeah, I ordered the Fast Trekker 18x11x10 on Douglas Ultimate Beadlocks today. I just have to get rear hubs and spacers...
I will get some video of launching with it. I Just got my HMF Duals delivered today, they are AWESOME!!!
I dont think I will have a problem with launching with 18" tires. I have the weight advantage[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
