need help picking out a set of new rims and tires

[Mborso1029]

well, im trying to find my self a christmas present and i think iwant rims and tires, well rockymountainatv has so many differnt options i dont know what i want, i need suggestions...all i care about are polished rims, id like a good deal not to expensive, but good stuff. nothing to cheap but something in the middle...you know. im not really sure on the size or the tires...like i said all i want is polished rims...links would help awesome

razr's or holeshots all around stock size for the front and 20/11/9 for the rear......just go on rm and build the set you want and buy.......

 

[justtwistit]

well it kind of depends on what kind of riding u do
i have holeshots on stock rims on the front and holeshots on itp .190 in the rear and i really like them! the rear wheels have a few scratches but that to be epected when trail riding but over all they r really nice!
i have heard alot about kenda claws and they seem to be a good all round tire
but again it depends on what kind of riding

 

[Mborso1029]

its gonna be trail riding, and i have not ever looked into buying new rims, so i have no idea whats good and whats not. are douglas better than itp rims? whats the .190 and all that? school me please

I dont know how the sizes are for AM rims but i have 20-11-8 holeshots in back and its great for trails

 

[Mborso1029]

i need something that will go alittle easy on the wifes wallet as well.

 

[UniRacing]

Do you want rims or can you deal with stock ones?

 

[Mborso1029]

its gonna have the shee hubs on it so i got rid of the ones that came with mine,,...they were all spray painted and dented, banged up. i want a nice set of alumium rims, i really dont care much about the tires. honestly my quads sit and look pretty more than they get rode. so the tires dont matter much, but when i do take them out its just trail riding and through the back yard.

 

[Mborso1029]

the razors mx and douglas 125's i can get for the rear at like 175. whats the difference in razors and razors mx

 

[justtwistit]

the .190 is the thickness of the rim
the higher the number the thicker the rim and more of a beating it can take
i think .190 is the highest and .125 is the lowest

im not sure the difference between razors and razors mx but i bet it has to with the compution of the tread sorry my spelling sucks

 

[Blasterdude27]

Razr mx's are 18"s while plain razrs are 20-22" and come in 4 ply and 6ply versoins.

Trust me you don't want .125's for trail riding! They will bend and get banged up the first ride, spend the little extra and get .190's.

I personally run razr cross's and I like em' alot, they have a real mean tread pattern that hooks up pretty good... 100% better then stockers. But they are 18"s depending on your trails you may want 20's, so if I was you I might look into 20" holeshots.

 

[Mborso1029]

ok i see that now...im looking at those razor crosses you got, on douglas 190's....its looking like 400 hundo all together for front and rear...is that about a good price to pay for a full set of rims and tires? or should i be looking for cheaper and smaller? is 190 over kill for the trails? i wont be doing much jumping....how do these compare to like a stock set of yfz 450 rims? alot better?

 

[samolia]

just get some yfz rims there aluminum its just the aftermarket ones are shiny..

 

[yb200]

i run 160's on mine with no problems..........

 

[mr_3_0_5]

i got the perfect rims for you.. shoot me a pm and ill get you a pic.

 

[Mborso1029]

ok so i was just looking on motosport which is a much better layout for picking out a set of rims and tires, much more user friendly that RMATV, but anyway what is there rock aluminum 160 rims??? any one ever try these yet? there a good price but i dont want to be the first to try them

 

[Mborso1029]

also found those artrax tires on motosport.com...any feedback on those. they look like a great offbrand holeshot for the price.
