Rear tire size

[excel88]

I see everyone is running a different size rear tire, what are the advantages of this??

more importantly, what is optimum for a recreation rider, like dirt mostly...

I have mud lites currently, but there are wearing down very fast

it all depends. are you going to be going over large rocks, and deep mud? if so get 22's

if not the get 20's handle better.
but i need my 22's so that why i have em....

just what he said ^^^^ i have my 22 cause of the rougher trails i ride

I have 20s and ride deep mud, snow, rocks, sand, dirt and they are perfect!

20's are the way to go....there good for trails. Im actually thinking of 19's

I have 25's, if i go to 22's will my tires spin faster??
will that mean i'll lose some top end speed??

yea i hear ya all the way Death, i could feel a little lag when i went form 20's to 22's nevermind 25's, but if your into hardcore mud and ruts i tihnk the 25's would be the way to ride

if hes into hardcore mud and ruts then i think he went with the wrong kinda quad lol but i have 21s on mine.... they do make it a tad slower but barely noticible from the 20s....

25's never get me stuck, even with thick mud past my axle, i can't really see why anybody would put them on there tho, they don't spin fast enough when i want to power slide or donut, so im going to a 22 or 21 holeshot
