Xc 20" Tire And Rim???

[rescuescrub]

Im pretty sure I want to go to a 20" tire for xc buit as far as rim diameter 8",9",10" how does the difference affect the quad. Also the actual tire width's. Also any suggestions as a tire?? Was lookin at the ITP's. Any help would be appreciated....Ron. IM SOO CONFUSED

For the rear go with a 9" rim because there are more tire for that size. Most XC racers are running 20x11x9 razor rears, and for the front 22x7x10 razor 2's. this is a really good setup. If your wantin ITP's look at the GNCC's get a 21 inch rear cuz they run small and the 22's for the front.

I'm running a 20x11-9 RAZR rear grooved on 9" rolled edge wheels for now, it's an awesome setup for a budget. Just waiting to order my HiPer rears to match my fronts.


On front I'm running a 21x7-10 RAZR2 on my HiPer fronts, and love that setup as well.


Hard to beat the RAZR2 / RAZR setup... the only other I would consider is the GBC XREX's which are also slightly more budget friendly.

With my XC setup - 20" X-Rex Rears and 21" Razr II fronts (Soon to be x-rex) I am running 13/38 for sprockets. Seems to work well......I spend most of my time on the track in 2nd.

Pretty much the same setup I'm running... 20x11x9 RAZR rears on ITP T-9 GP and 21x7x10 RAZR fronts, also on ITP T-9 GP.

And my front sprocket is a 13T (down one tooth from stock).

Really good setup, works well and the quad still handles well.

Cheapest deal on this setup is on Rocky Mountain ATV.

Check with C&D......the steel sprockets were very decently priced.
