motocross- 18x10x8 razr mx or 9 inch if you dont want to buy new rims

cross country- 20x11x9 razr 2

depends on what your doing. if your racing xc or doing hard trail riding id go with maxxis razar or razar 2. i have heard thought that the razar 2's are almost to aggressive for racing they hook up to much so to speek.plus both tires are 6 ply.

For moto cross get mxr4 there designed to work with the type of power a four stroke puts out you can get them in a 8 or 9 inch rim. For cross country i would get 20 inch hole shot HD those are bad a** tire you will spend a day just tring to get stuck. Good luck with you choice.

Klaws...Best price, longest lasting, many sizes, and dual directional...

i would have to say i-razrs. I just got back from the crawfordsville race and a ton of people were using them. anyone who wasnt was getting stuck. I didnt see anyone using H-D's but i am sure they would have been really good too. All i know is that plenty of people were using the i-razrs and it was a rough track with lots of mud and ruts and they pulled right through.

i've used all of those tires mentioned and woudl gladly anyday ride holeshots way over razr's and razr's way over kenda's..

kendas aren;'t made well at all IMO and do not hook up what soe ver compared to holeshot mxr4's

that's all for MX references in an 18x 8" wheel form.
