I'm considering buying these tires and would like to put them on a set of Itp T-9 Gp black rims but I have no idea what size tires or rims to buy. I have 21x7x10 on the front and 20x10x9 on the rear and i'll be doing harescrambles and somene told be not to buy size 8 rims becasue there will break during the race so any help would be much appreciated

The ITP rims in black would be the 9x8. Make sure you get the GP rims. I bought the non-GP ITP rims and after racing, the rear rims were shaped like the letter D!!!!

The size 8 wheel is moreless for motocross. Plus, your not gonna find a huge selection of six ply tires for 8" wheels. Take it from someone thats been down that road before. The sizes that your currently running will work great.

Buy the same size tires/wheels you have now. I personally wouldn't own ITP wheels though. Everyone I've known in person that had them have had problems with them either blowing the tire off the bead easily or the rims not holding air. I personally would go with Douglas wheels.

GBC's are good tires. You'll be happy with them.

We carry the GBC tires and have been using them on our XC quads for a little while with great results. As for rims I agree you will need a 9x8 rear rim and a 10x5 front rim.
