I was thinking of changing my tires in the next month or so. And I was wondering what do you guys think of a 20" front 18" rear razrs? Right now I have 21/20 so I might trade these in and go a little smaller. I am racing some mx and riding trails. Also if I do get these should I get the rolled edges on the reae, and does that cost extra?

20's and 18's are good for mx, but you'll loose a little bit of ground clearance for the trails. Rolled edge rims cost more than regular edges, but last a lot longer.

Ok thanks a lot man. So should I just stick w/ the 21/20 for both mx and trail riding. Or what about a 21/18 w/ 36t, but if I have a 21/20 setup, I should use a 39t?

Sorry, I do not know much about the terrain out your way in Ohio, but if you think you can trail ride with 18" rear tires, cool. I would think though, that any time there is mud, ruts, snow, rocks, ect., that the 20" rear tires would be the way to go over 18" rears.

Good luck!:)
