Why would you switch from utility tires (that suck) to Turf tamers on a utility trike? especially that size, if I were you I would look at 20' WB make overs of something like that,

they are fast trekker not turf tamers
its a utility and sport in one
i appreciate ur opinion and all
but i want more power then top end speed
and stryker is not a bad tire
i want somethin that looks and spins better

sorry, I miss read your choice on tires. is the DX shaft driven? and wanting more touque cabalitys I am assuming you are trial riding and hill climbing, or just working, Keep in mind though the ground clearance that you are going to loose. If it is not shaft driven I would change gearing on sprkets. later

Ok, then nice chocie for play riding but if you are into serious mud riding I would incourage you to change tires, the stykers have good forward motion to them but the tend to slide to the side ALOT, i know thais becuase I have a pair.
As for the front tire, I believe it is a good tire, and i would stick with it unless you got in to REAL serious dune riding, but how serious can you get on a DX? LOL hope i helped any. later

Ben, I don't know much about the DX but I would say you'll do fine unless you start to spin, then you will get botomed out REAL fast with the smaller tires. other then that i don't see why not...
