im gettin ready to buy some new tires and rims and i was just wondering which tires i should get out of these 3 choices.
-Kenda Klaws
-Maxxis Razrs or Razr2
-ITP holeshots

And what sizes should i get? Should i run a taller or smaller tire in the rear for example liek they have stock 22's in the front and 20's in the back.

Any ideas for rims? Which ones look the best that would hold up to jumps and bends but also wont break my wallet. Thanks alot guys

well if u race MX 18s are the only way to go

Basic trail riding id stick with 20s and if its really rocky or things all over the trail id run 22's

As for tires i wouldnt run hole shots because of the wear rate. kendras are also nice but havent heard much about there trail tire, only the MX tire which seems to be the best deal goin. And Razrs, i run them and love them. They hook up when i need em too but they also slide nice as well. So far there my favorite tire

Id go with 20" kenda klaws but thats jmo. If ur gonna get razors if its in ur budget get the razor 2's if not the old ones will be fine.

Keep the stock rims if they are straight. They are better than the standard .190's. Unless you are getting rims with reinforcment rings or beadlocks.

I'd get the Kend Klaws just because they seem to be the best value.
