I think I'll get tires a little later into the season, were those tires the only kind back when my blaster was made ('00)? What tires would you guys reccomend? I've heard a lot of good stuff about the Holeshots. How are they quality wise? and price wise?
I like the holeshots.I only went with veerubbers this time because I could not find the holeshot I wanted in a 19.The holeshot hd is what I wanted but only come in a 20 and 22 I believe.
The tire size I sellected is a 19x11x9.The first number is the tires outer diameter x width x last number being the rim size.The price range for a couple good back tires will be about 150ish a pair.If your running stock rim size its 8x8.I switched from stock and went with banshee rear hubs for more rim and tire selection and I am running a 9x9 rear rim.If you descide to go with an 18 inch tire I would stay with an 8inch rim.
I got my new wheels mounted.They are the 6 ply.I mensioned before I would post the difference in weigt.The holeshots 2ply 18 inch came out to 16.16lbs and the 19inch veerubbers mounted on the itp baja came out to 21lbs.Added weight per wheel was 5lbs.Really nothing to make a difference.The 19 is performing better threw out the gear range.
