    most people run 18s, 20s, or 22s
    all depends on what kind of riding you do and what type of gearing you want.

    My all time favorite combo on any sport machine is 20x11-10 turf tammers. It's a little too stiff for most but I love the feel and handle of them.

    My 85 250R came with 18 inch turf tamers on back. The were mounted on 8" gold rims so it still matched the front. I really like them but I took them off because they geared me down too low. I put the stock tires and rims back on. For some reason I like stock tires. Dennis sells stock replacement tires for my 450R and my 250R. When I buy tires stock ones are probably going on. I like 20's though. If I had a 350X it would either get stock 450R or 400EX tires. I'm not sure what size came on a TRI-Z.
    I don't care for razors. They handle horribly on pavement, especially riding a wheelie they pull you all over the place.

    Im runnig a stock front tire with 22X11-8 Mxxis All Trax rear tires. They work pretty good for a all around trail tire. I wanted someting a little more aggresive than turf tamers.

    with more of a gripper tire does it make it harder for yous to do donuts for some reason sometimes i get them really good and then sometimes i can`t even get in to one would this be due to air pressure in my back tires cause i didn`t have to much air pressure before and it worked great now that i filled them up its a little harder to do them

    for more bottom end get smaller in the front and larger in the rear sprocket.
    vice versa for more top end.
