[tjsdaname]

I have 18inch RAZRs and im going to get them mounted Tomorrow...... do you think I should get a swingarm skid plate??? how much clearence should I have with 18 inch tires???

if you are going down from the stock tires. you are gonna lose quite a bit. if you are a trail rider that has to deal with rocks or roots at any time, a skid plate is HIGHLY recommended. MX and dunes are about the only places i would think about not running one.

yeah I ride MX but I think im gonna get one just incase....

With 18's you definitely want a skid plate. You only have a couple inches of clearance in the back with those.
