Since i plan on riding mx and I ride trails, would getting the ITP MXR4 19x10x9 tires be a good choice for both mx and trail since the size is between 18" and 20"? Also would this be ok if I put these tires on my OEM wheels, then later putting them on different wheels?

This is probably a stupid question but here it goes...I was looking for tires (not the tire and wheel package) on rockymountainatv and I was wondering when you order the tire does it come with two? Im not talking about the tire and wheel package just the tire by itself...does it come with two tires for 59.94?

Thanks for your help!

I would think 2 tires costs more than 60$.

That or Kenda Klaws would be a great choice.

The prices (as the others have said) are for 1 tire. Will be $120 for 2.

I don't see why you couldn't ride em for trail and mx. Yea it will be fine if your run them on your stock rims. it would look better with some shiny itp or douglas rims. I run the itp pro series they are .190 like oem wheels so they are still strong.

ITP 190's bend very easy and stock wheels are much stronger. That would be a good combo too go for it

any of them with the reinforcement rings, ITP Baja, Douglass Ultimate, C series, any beadlocks and HiPer Technology are carbon fiber

so should I go with 18" or 20". My local dealer has 18" in stock so I think Ill go with that size.

dont get them just because they are in stock. Ask him how much for both mounted, then call C@D or rocky mountain atv they are usually cheaper. I get a price from rocky mt then take that to the dealership and see if he will do better if not go get them somewhere else. My dealer tried selling my Maxxis Razors for $70 a tire then I showed him a price quote from Rocky Mt. and he went $10 lower. You have to know how to haggle in this world and deffantly in this sport it is full of money whores.

Beware....the MXR4 is a great MX tire...but they're only 2ply, so for trails/off-road, they'll puncture easily.:ermm:

Thanks guys for all your help! I got the 20"x11"x9" Holeshot Rear Tires. I went with these tires because they are 4 ply, for all around use(mainly for MX and general trail riding) and they are just like the MXR4 but 4 ply instead of 2 ply. They are very tough and I like the low profile and boxier look of them.

Good call, I went riding with a guy that has a 400ex and he just put on Holeshot HD's they weigh 19lbs each !!!!! That is crazy
