ITP Holeshots. XCT for a 22" tall tire. More ground clearance for trails. XCR's if you want to stay with 20".

I've tried Razr's and Shredders on mine. The two slide about the same, but the Shredders have much more straight line bite. They also wear much better. My Razr's looked pretty beat up after only a few rides. My Shredders still look new. 22x11x9 6-ply is the way to go.

Kenda Bearclaws for 40 a pop, great tread wear and giant tread that slide good but grip when your going straight up a hill. He's hillclimbing, hes not XC riding guys![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

The .160 and .180 is the strengh of the the rim. I think the .180 is .190 and theres also a .125 but those will bend with any hard riding/jumping.
