    I run them on two of my ATV's and would'nt hesitate to put them on a trike. They work great in the muskeg(moose pasture) up here as well as mud/sand and snow. This is the only tire I will buy from now on. I replaced my Mud Lites with them and what a difference.

    Look up the specs online and it will tell you the original size of tire. If they will fit on your rims they should work. How well they work is the question. Stay as close to the original size as possible.

    An inch narrower will not hurt anything, but an inch wider may be a no go when it comes to fitment issues. The height and rim size are the most important. If the rim size is not the same you are screwed from the start. And if you typed the sizes in correctly in your last post they wont fit on your rims. You will have a hard time getting the bead to seat. LOL

    Actually now that I looked at the available sizes none of the 22" tires on that chart are offered in an 8" rim. Looks like you are going to have to shop for different rims or look into a different tire.


    these look pretty aggressive and they come in your size

    You might call them to make sure they arent planning on discontinuing them. Or call the manufacturer directly. There is an awful lot of sizes in that tire that are out of stock.

    might want to think about a 20inch tire...specially on a 200x if your putting a heavy tire like a bearclaw on it.....save some weight and maybe not lose as much torq...and gain a little lowend grunt
