My 1982 185s has tires that are 22x11x8. Can I run a 25x11x8?? I wonder if it would be to tall? I would love to have the big fat tires like what's on a early 110. Think they look good big like that.

I believe stock 110's have 22" tires.

If you want to run 25" tires on your 185s, I'd triple check the clearance to make sure you can. Don't know if the 110's are at all similar to 185's, but my 22" front baloon tire rubs the fender if I'm moving fast enough.

Darn. 3 inches is not a lot but it might be to much

It's been a few years since I've had a 185s, so I can't remember if clearance is the same, but I can tell you for sure that if I tried to use 25" tires on my 200s, they would definitely rub on the fenders.

Hehe, for a short while I was running 25x12r9 mudlites on my 110 !!! rubbed a bit but a bungee cord from one side of the fender to the other solved that. Sure took a hit in power though, shouldn't be as noticable on the 185s. I will say it was pretty cool in the mud... it just catwalks and then goes whichever way it wants. I really need something bigger than a 110.
