    Help with tires

    Hi, im looking for new tires for my little trike. I have Goodyear 21 x 11 - 8 tires, i wanted to put something better, specially in the back. I dont have lots to choose here. I've seen this 20 x 7 - 8, will they fit my rim?
    The ground clearance is 5 inches like you see in the pic.

    What kind of tires do you recommend me, specially for light mud, some sand, and trails, "balloon" style tires or the one that is in the pic?

    I've done a little research, i've found CHENG SHIN 22x11-8 (balloon style, USD 95), KINGS TIRE 22x11-8 (balloon style, USD 80), and this 20x7-8 tire (USD 52).
    No much more than this, the demand here is too small.

    Yes, that is my little trike, the one in the avatar is a even more little 1978 ATC90.
    Due to the lack of trikes i had to get a custom one.

    It's a street bike conversion, 125cc, 4 stroke, 5 speed, manual clutch. The bike was a Honda CG125 (google for more info ), tires, plastic, etc are from a 110.
    It has a little motor but its pretty fun to ride Its the only full suspension trike i've ever seen
    I can probably get some cheap shipping, i have a PO box in Miami, is an interesting possibility, i will check the costs.

    props for building your own! thats awesome! I trully like your trike.. I got some 18x11x8 fast trackers at billys house that I got free from Kintore, if you want them just pay for the shipping, I will have to pick them up and get the wheels taken off, pm your adress and I will check at my post office what it may cost to ship them.

    Anyone knows if the 20x7-8 tires will fit my ATC90/ATC110 rims?

    If they fit i will save some money and get a better look
