Buying new tires

[Woater101]

Hey there,
My names Bryan, i just bought a 2006 SE Blaster last weekend and it is so bad! My first 4 wheeler and its off the chain, I broke the seal on my tire and am currently ordering some new ones online. I was looking at some 18' maxxis - i have 21's on it now, will i have to change the gearing or anything like that? Any suggestions/advice would be helpful

get 20's 18's dont give any ground clearance and you need to regear if you get 20's stock gearing is perfecto..

 

[Woater101]

thats what i thought , thanks for the speedy response

 

[coreyownz]

no problem bud!

i got 20" itp holeshots and they work great but i want to try 18" holeshots ive never had maxxis so i dunno good luck

I currently have 21x10x8, will 20x11x8 fit?

 

[Blasterb0y794]

Yes 20x11x8 will fit. Any tire with the last digit as an 8 will be able to go on your rims.

yeah me and my bro got some tires there about 2 weeks ago very good place and if it is under $99 it is just $7 to ship so i recommend and yes the 20-11-8 is the best choice

If I get 20x11x8 do i have to buy spacers or a new axle or it fits on just with the stock axle ? and I have the heel guards on also.

i was thinking about 22/11/8 does ne one know how that would work out i sat them beside the bike today and the clearence was fine wondering if the trans and cluches would handle a bigger tire

 

[jlsparky7]

Trans and clutch will handle bigger tires just fine. The Blaster Banshee R6 and R1 basically have the same clutch. My R1 has 180hp and gets abused like a redheaded stepchild in the candy isle and walmart and it stands up fine.

Go down 1 tooth in the front if you want to run 22's and keep about the same gearing.

awsome i was hesatating on getting them but i recken ill go back and get them now they only came in the 22/11/8 they r the carlile trail pros i know its not a tire most people run on here but i do serious trail riding and dont like to get stuck

With a big bore and a 4 mill you will have no probs turning 22's.

Get some pics up of them!
