what size tires?

[2001300exguy]

What size tires would work best on an 01 300ex.I was thinking 18 or 20 i dont really want 18 cause i dont want to loose alot of top end.

what kinda ridin do you do?

[2001300exguy]

Mostly trails bu i also ride a track bout once or twice a week near my house. The reason i say i dont want to loose top speed is i rie on a road sometimes and need to keep up with traffic

i'd go with 20's man.....18 arent good for trails and 22's suck on tracks:cool:

I just got 20 rear razrs, and 21's in the front. I love em! It handles a lot better without those balloon tires, lower center of gravity. Plus it looks a lot cooler too. Go with the 20's the rear for sure, then if you want fronts, get 21's ;) And if you want to even the gearing back out, a 14t front sprocket will do it.

drift post a pic of your 300 please.... and what ply did you get?

[drifterx]

Here's the best side shots i got. They aren't real good, but i hope they help. I got 6ply. They seem to hold up real good and hook up real well.

My 400ex runs 20s and i find them great!! they can get me off the line great and they hall balls down the road. My friend runs 18s on his 400ex and i kill him top speed and off the line we are even because the tire is to small to get some bite. GO 20

for sure 20's or your lose all your grond clearance and drift that hood looks awsome
