Default sprocket changes on a Raptor 700

I want to up my front from 13 to 15 and my rear down 2 teeth for some speed and power but i dont know what would be best
I also want '22s in the rear for rocky trails i ride so can i keep the front set of stock tires with '22s in the rear?

well with 22's it will already have a higher top speed, and changing sprockets wont add power it will just change the gearing ratio, how much more speed do you want you should be at 80mph already...lol

i dont think ur gunna be dragging long enough to go 95 or even 85. most people only go 300ft (100yrds) u want acceleration not speed. if u cant get the opponent off the line theres a good chance u may lose. most drag racers gear down to get that 2nd gear start instead of 1st plus more acceleration to run the gears. when i fisrt started drag racing i was gearing WAY down but since i went on alcohol ive geared WAY up just b/c alky adds so much more torque. if i was you id be looking for more acceleration atleast the 08 700rs need more.
