I have an 03 300ex with holeshots on the rear 20x10x9. the stock size was 22x10x9. Now going from a 22 to a 20 how much speed will I lose. I didnt get to open it up yet not enough room at the last few places I went riding or should I stay with the 22. The bike is piped and jetted if that helps and the next question is I need new tires because holeshots suck, mostley for trail and a little mud once in a while any sugestions would be greatly appreciated.

I think you will only loose a few MPH. It might even be benificial for trail riding having the added torque on the bottom. If top speed does matter you can put on larger front sprocket.

I got less than 6 months on the ITP's and there s only 40% tread left on them. Im just not happy with them at all. There really not worth the money.
