    Tires for my 200x...

    I have a 1985 200x that is in need for some new rear tires. Right now, it's got the stock pro-vector tires and the X is INSANELY unstable. I threw my buddy's wheels on for a week and tried out his spider-trac tires and the size difference made an incredible difference as far as stability.
    I've been looking into the Maxxis All Trak and Sur Trak, but can't decide. Which tire would you guys go with? The terrain where I ride is pretty rocky with a decent amount of mud. I'm open to suggestions if someone thinks there is a better suited tire. Thanks!

    For trails get the 6 ply Maxxis Razr 20x11x9. but out of those two tires the all trak is the better one.

    Are you a beastie boy? LOL.

    Maxxis Razrs are probably the best tire for sport trikes at the moment

    The new ITP Holeshot MXR6's. They have a reinforced carcass to help hold a flatter profile in cornering which in turn allows for lower tire pressure. This helps the handling and the ride. Plus in my opinion the ITPs wear better than the Maxxis.

    What? Didn't you hear where he rides? That would not be a good tire.

    Maxxis Razr 20x11x9 6 ply or the ITP holeshot HD 20x11x9 is the way to go.
