    Thumbs up Going in A New Direction...

    Well ever since I've got my 185s I wanted to make it a mud bogger, but after much riding, plenty of mud, and a couple clutches later, from over sized tires, I'm tired of tearing stuff up and it doesn't do quite what I want from it, so I'm done with deep mud. I've decided to go a little bit lower like 18" tires and to possibly start riding on some tracks if I can find some near by. I know the ride will be rougher but I'm young and dumb so that doesn't bother me much. I've already done the 450r hub swap on the rear so I have the 4/110 bolt pattern. That gave me a good bit more offset, but I'm wanting some more. If anyone has info on what rims I can run that will give me more offset that would be great. I'm not really sure I like the idea of spacers but If yall have had good success with them let me know. I'm wanting to know what tires you guys are running also. I have a makeshift loose dirt MX track that I like to play on with it and I also plan on turning a hayfield I have into a loose dirt round track. I'm leaning towards ITP holeshots or Maxxis razers. I'm wanting to have grip, but I also want to be able to slide in the corners. If their are better tires for that let me know.

    Oh and I'm doing the whole xr200 top end swap too. Now that I've noticed you can still get the cams from Honda and I'm not paying what Web cams wants for theirs.

    So to sum it up:
    1. What tires do yall recommend?
    2. What rims (8"x8") will give me more offset or to go with spacers?
    3. Oh and should I go 18"s all way around or 22" up front and 18"s out back?
    4. Does anyone have any pics to a 185s with with 18"s all the way or a link?
    5. And thumbs up for not destroying an untouched 185s frame trying to lift it!
