I'm looking at Rocky Mt for tires and im confused by some things. I like the Maxxis All Trak tire - what size should I get?? I clicked 22x11x9 then the .190 douglas rims, but what does that 3.00 + 5.00 on the rim mean?

I already have holeshots that came with the quad. I have no knowledge with atv tires and rims. Please help, any suggestions would be helpful too

i think it is just asking if you want tire slime or chrome valve stems

That doesnt make sense. I think it has something to do with the offset and i've been told by BLACKER to not get a certain offset for front rims.

the 3.00 x 5.00 means 3 inch offset inside by 5 inch outside offset which is stock (what u want)

22 is a tall rear tire. i would advise a 20. whats wrong with the wheels you have now? if theyre stock they are going to be stronger than anything but beadlocks or the reinforced wheels.

Maxxis doesnt make the All Trak in 20, only 22. I believe the stock wheels are mounted to the ice tires I got with the R. The holeshots are mounted on a douglas.

Should I go with a 20 for the trails? What tire is better for muddy terrains?

unless you ride very very rough and muddy trails i woudl recommend 20's. i run 20 in holeshots and my bro runs 20in razers. i would assume i run similar trails to you. 22's are going to be tippier if you ever get on high speed stuff. the pro XC guys are running 20in tires. i woudl switch the ice tires to the douglas wheels and the new tires to the stockers. IMO stock wheels are the best wheel for causual-agressive weekend warrior type riding. just trying to save you a few bucks...
