I would like to find out if I can put 10" or 11" wheels on the front of the bayou 220. Like to go to a 23" tire but can't find anything for the stock 9" wheels. Any Ideas? Thanx Dan

That engine can't handle a much more aggresive tread than a stock type knobby - I see your point for going to a larger rim - less weight - but, you might want to consider an 8" rim - more tire choices - maybe bolt on a set of 22" Scorpions or similar knobby - stay with a 2 ply tire and fill it with slime (much less weight that 4 or 6 plies) so you don't have to worry about flats - I wouldn't go any more aggressive than a Wooley copy for the rear.

Thanx I got 25" wooley boogers on the rear now, but I'll like to go to a taller tire in the front. Little more ground clearence.
