    I went with Ocelot P336 tires in 20X10X9. The wheels have a little more offset than stock also. I find the the flatter tires and wider stance make a huge difference in making the ride more stable.

    I agree, The CST ambush tires I put on are 22X10X10 and do feel more stable than the Kenda's were.

    I'm running some worn out ITP mudlites on my '86. I stumbled upon them by accident and the work amazing here in NE Ohio. The work well enough that I'm always looking got another pair of half worn tires for when these have outlived their usefulness.

    I chose these for 200x.
    I went with 18. To get some more grunt in the bottle end.

    I made several rides on different trails, loose sand, rocky rough two track (jeep trails), some pavement, smooth gravel roads. All good! The ride is a wee bit rougher in some cases but not uncomfortable. The main thing for me is it is much more stable side to side, not as tippy as the old tires and the cornering is great. It turns faster than it did before. Very stable on pavement the old tires swayed a lot.

    I found the cheapest 18x11x9 I could find on amazon that looked like flat track tires vs lawn mower tires. A kenda up front on some vintage D.I.D. gold wheels, I think it looks awesome. May be the closest I ever get to owning a real 250r.

    I like the gold wheels, tires look good also. Someone should start making and selling gold wheels again.

    I love it. It's my favorite trike. Nothing against my 350X, but these days, I usually prefer an auto clutch and I rarely need the power of the 350X.

    I am looking to buy a 350x, because my 200x lacks the thrill I was looking for. It's nice just not thrilling.
    I am having foot issues, and the 200x is not helpful. I have several 200 bottom ends I could switch out. I just hate to loose the clutch. That makes it fun.

    I can understand the missing clutch. Honestly, I almost never miss it. It just takes a little different riding technique.

    Do you ride the clutch on your auto?
    Meaning, do you hold the foot shifter in between gears to rev up rpms? Like you might with a hand clutch?
