alright, so its time for new rear tires on the Z. i want a 20 inch tire, and i got a 8 inch rim. winters comin up so i want somethin decent in snow, but other than that i ride mostly on hard packed trails. what would be my best choice in tires?

i have 20 inch maxxis razrs that did surprisingly well in the snow while on my 110. for a race type tire that is. once things dry up you will like them even more.

Theres not many options for a 20x11x8 tire, i had some holeshots on my X in that size a while back. I was very happy with them

If you get a 9in rim you'll have alot more options. I really like the ITP mudlite SP tires alot.

hahahaha thanks dirtdevil but im good on the trail pros. my 200x came with them when i bought it, and let me say it wasnt long before i got rid of them. anyways i do realize i dont have alot of options with an 8 inch rim, i just dont feel like buying new rims right now. ha but i might, im not sure. and i was looking at the mudlite sp's and was quite intrigued. anyone else run them?

I swapped out my Tri-Z hubs with banshee hubs and have banshee wheels on it now. I'm running the Kenda Knarly tires and am really happy with them all around. But I'm guessing they might not have the size you want for an 8" rim, I will have to look and see...
