What do you guys run on yur R's or Tecates? Im not going below 20 or above 22 on any sport trike, I know that. I was going to use the rear dunlops (22x10-9) form my 200x on the 86 R im buildin--what do you guys think? I ask becuase most of the oens I see are using 20's int he back. Also: Id be using a Kenda FrotnMax 23.5

Thanks,
Rob

I voted 20's on 9's because I really like the OHTSU 20" radials (MR501's). I saw some 20" Dunlop radials that came stock on a raptor, they looked good too.

The only problem i have with bigger tires on smaller rims, is that, they ar ugly:thmbsdwn: and the roll to much when sliding, I would like to opt for 10 inch rims to....

I've got a set of Raptor Dunlops. I really like 'em. Lots of traction, light weight, ride nice and look good too.

The deciding factor would be where are you going to ride?. Is ground clearance a factor or not?. If you plan on riding on ruff trails and need some ground clearance i would go 22". If it is just for sand i would go 20" or maybe even 18"

Ground clearance will always be an issue I like to control Becuase I like to be high as possible on machines, without overdoing it. Welp--I think my decision is made: 22's. Eventually if I find the right setup, my utlimate choice would be 21's on 10's :D
