Which tore should I run for Mx ??? Running extended axle and hiper dual ring locks found a good deal on both just want to know which one would be the better of the 2

9 1/2 wide vs 11" wide. 11" wide tire will be more rubber on the ground so more traction.

I had both, I liked the narrower better. It turned much better. On the right track, then get more traction than most can use, especially if grooved. I grooved mine in a "v" pattern to aid turning some and clear mud w/ less spin.

Well not really...

The 9.5" is narrower and will dig down more. Think of it like snow tires on a car, we go to a narrower tire to get more of the carcass on the ground and less float.

I always used the 9.5" wide one's myself.
