My daughter is 11 years old and has been MX racing since 5. We bought this wonderful WONDERFUL 2008 250 Raptor and are still trying to get it set up. We have 3+ arms in front and 2+ in rear. We still have stock tires/wheels and would like a good receommendation on size. We are having trouble with her coming up on 3 wheels cornering.....how can we get it lowered a bit to prevent this? She's not real aggressive around corners and only brakes it loose on straight-aways. She was comfortable enough in her 110 to brake it loose on turns............Any advise is greatly appreciated!!! Thanks!!

We went with 18 10 9 ITP Holeshot tires with the intent of having less sidewall to be able to slide through turns easier. They sit fairly "square" on the wheels.
Been working well for us!
