Getting some new tires and have a couple questions....

[nowukno]

I have decided to get ITP Holeshot XCR's all the way around. Should i get the exact same size tire in the front? I have heard something about aftermarket front tires are bigger/taller or something. Maybe i misunderstood or somebody just dosen't know what there talking about. Just wanna make sure before i buy them. Or maybe there's something i should know about the rear's. Sorry , it's my first time buying tires for a quad. Your help is appreciated.

Tire sizes vary from company to company, but it is very minimal. Mainly do to that fact that one may have a more aggressive tread.

Most people run either a 21" or 22" front. It's basically what kind of condition you are going to be riding in. If it is muddy and the trails are rutted out all the time, I would say go with the 22" for extra ground clearance. Although you will get more clearance, you will loose a little bit of handling capability. If you ride just normal trails in your backyard, you would probably like the 21" better.

REALLY ITS YOUR CALL. IF YOU LIKE THE STOCK SETUP STAY WITH THE SAME SIZE TIRES. IF YOU RIDE TRAILS DEFINATLY KEEP THE 20 IN TIRES IN THE REAR. 18'S WILL NOT GIVE YOU THE RIDE HEIGHTH YOU NEED AND YOU WILL GET HUNG UP ALOT ON ROCKS OR ROOTS. I JUST BOUGHT THE KENDA KLAWS. SHOULD BE HERE TOM.......... GOOD LUCK

21x7x10 XCR fronts are bigger than the stock 22's. I love my XCR's. These are 21's:

i have 21'' and 22'' razr2 fronts

the 22'' is obviously more universal being its the taller tire, but the 21'' has better handling, i would reccommend the 22'' if ud jus like it for everything, or the 21'' if ud like the extra bit of handling it adds
