Last thing I have on my list of questions. I've got 18 inch rear tires, I ride motocross and my front rims are 10 inches. Should I go with 19 or 20 inch tires. If it's of any importance most the tracks around here are sorta sand tracks, minus Washougal which is just a typical super tacky Pro MX track.

If they are well groomed tracks, then go with the 19". If they are rough tracks, go with 20"

20's will serve you better for MX

20's it is then! Tracks in the Northwest are super rough because of all of the rain. The biggest obstacle on them is the braking bumps, they usually turn into 1ft tall square edged mini whoops that beat up your arms pretty bad.

I get those things on my little MX practice track at my house. They SUCK so bad, and I'm just riding around trying to have fun. I'd hate to have to go over them things repeatedly in a race.

Oh dude trust me I know what you mean! I'm just south of Seattle, won't give away specific town names but the chances of even seeing my town on a map is not likely haha.
