question for the MX gurus

[05 450R in pa]

im running 18x10x8 rears and have stock size on the front would yins recommend going to a 20 or 21 front or will i be ok as is?...and also what gearing would be recommended? the tracks tight and only has 1 straight away bout 200 ft or so all the rest is tight corners and short burst straights kinda SX style

What track you asking about? Evansville SX? Go with a 20" front tire. Keep gearing stock, or if its REALLY tight go with 1 tooth down in the front (stock '06+) gearing.

never been to evansville im talking bout a lil local track in butler pa called switchback..i was thinkin i needed to go to a 20 in the front but wasnt sure if i could get away with the 8's on the rear and stock up front or if it would ride like *****...i havent rode it that way yet just trying to get opinions for my winter build

Overall, I just run 21s. It is good overall size. it will give the front the additional clearance you will need for other tracks down the road.

I always ran 20's in front and never had issues. It will handle better with them as well

[blaster12s]

20' nothing else works for moto very well

20's in the front.
and for gearing keep it stock size, or if its a little too tall then go up one tooth on the rear, or if its really tall go down one on the front.
