I justed bought some 20-6-10 Razr mx's for cheap and I have 20-11-9 razr's on the rear already, are these fronts to small to run with the rears I have? I know the fronts always seem to be taller, any info would be great, thanx

your rears will be taller than the front. mx tires are low profile, so the rears might be a small amount taller than 20" and the fronts would be slightly smaller than 20".

stock fronts are 22s i think it will feel like its nosediving in corners and if you hit the front brakes hard it might feel front heavy. you could always get some 19 or 18s for the back. me i like em bigger i have 23 front and 22 rears. i find alot of rocks thow.

Thats the combo I have on mine. It wants to dive a little bit but after I got used to it, corners like it's on rails.

the factory set the front size at 22 so the quad sits level, the rear size at 20 so in all reality to make it handle like it should you need to drop to 18s on the rear to make the geometry stay the same. thats why when i got 22 rears i got 23 fronts so that it would be as close to the same as possible. the feeling of nosediving in hard corners and braking i couldnt deal with. with the 23 fronts thow i can get dual rate springs and set the sag real low so it rides low and smooth but still sits up higher with the bigger tires and has the same bottoming resistance.

your fronts should always be at least a inch bigger than the rear in my opinion.

id call and see if you can switch them 20s to 21s or 22s if you can. or find you a set of 18 rears and have a track quad. keep the bigger rears and invest in some taller fronts and you have best of both worlds. you could have 22 20s for the trails and 20 18 for the track if you work it right. good luck but i def wouldnt be able to ride like that.

Don't have a side shot, but that pic above is not a good one for comparison. I also have 450r shocks on the front, which almost take care of the diving problem 100%. After I installed them I thought myself that they would be to small, but I would not go back to 21's or 22's.
