Hey! guess what... My wife got me a set of hole shots (20/11/9) for my banshee but they are much taller then my stock front tires. Has anyone tried this type of set up? should I buy a set of new front tires to match the height of the rear?
I've seen in all the mags that everyone seems to be running a taller tire size for the front.
any suggestions or feed back is greatly appreciated.


Peace I'm out....

Although it looks wierd, There is nothing wrong with running the larger tires on the back with the stock size tires. If you go with taller front tires it will make stearing a little harder, and will also add to the unsprung wheel weight on the front end, making the suspension less effective. This is not a big deal on the back as you can easily adjust it out, but the front stock shocks are not adjustable.
