I know I'm splitting hairs here, but which would be better for dunes/sand on the front, a 21" or a 23" tire? The price is the same for the ones I'm looking at. I would think slightly bigger would be better but I don't know

To be honest I don't think there would be much of a difference between the 2 id just go with a stock size 21

Yeah I don't think there is much difference. Just didn't know if the bigger tire would be better for flotation or not

I wouldn't think so, it would weigh more to.

21s are fine and actually AMS makes a good sand tire and on www.rockymountainatv.com they are only $24.

22 and up is no fun, the smaller ones work a lot better and plus when you jump with 23's in the front the front end tends to take off. I learned that one the hard way and ended up in urgent care because my ankles were so swollen, landing 80ft and pogo-ing on the back end hurts.
