Should I get 19 inch or 20 inch MX holeshots on my 300. Im rollin on 20's right now, and most of the people have 19's which would be better? IM about due for some new tires.

I tried the 19's in the past and didnt like them. Id stick with the 20's in the front

what felt diff. about them? wouldnt they get stopped faster b/c of the smaller diameter?

Yeah i have 20's on the front and they are way smoother that 19s.. and plus if you had bigger tires on the back it would look kinda wierd to me anyways:ermm:

ive got 18's on the rear. And i was thinking that 20's in the front would be better. B/c isnt your front supposed to be higher by like 1 1/4 inch or sumthin?

The 19's will have a give you a little bit better cornering, but the smaller diameter and shorter sidewall aren't as capable of soaking up bumps. It's not a huge difference between the 19 and 20 inch MX. More or less just a preference thing. It basically just comes down to wether or not you want slightly sharper cornering, or a little smoother ride. I personally like using the 19 inch.
