Running 20x11-9 ITP holeshots on the rear and thinking of picking up a set of dunlop qualifier for the front in 20x6-10. Mostly trail riding, sometimes in muddy conditions along with some track riding. If the price is right for the 20x6-10 would it be worth riding with those or should i look into a 21-22 front tire?

I run the 20" up front most of the time, with 18" in the rear. Sometimes 20" in the rear. I race that way on XC type races and trail riding if the ruts aren't deep. The 20" turn so much easier, it saves your strength for the longer races. Your front will set a little lower in the front, but not really a problem, at least for me. My son likes the 20" fronts also.

I would only use 22 front 21 rear but that's just me

Thanks so much for the input. I did research this topic before posting and it seems that the size will depend on the type of riding being done. Our local track and riding area that we primarily ride at was wet last weekend when we went and most of the trails had very large ruts in them. We tended to find an alternate way around and rarely went through any of the real muddy, rutted up areas. We typically prefer to ride in dry areas and one of our favorite places to ride is on a lead belt with sand flats which also has trail riding. My father is 65 years old and the primary rider of this atv so no really aggressive riding or jumping above 5ft.
