a guy on supermotojunkies.com mounted up some 17 inch knobbies on his husky sm wheels. they are a 100-100-17 rear on the front, and a 5.10-17 on the rear, both IRC Volcanduro VE-33's he says he has never ridden anything better in the sand/loose dirt.

Those look fun. May have to give them a try. Seems like I'm buying a new MT60 twice a week anyway.

Very cool!
I wonder how they'd be without rim locks...

I was speaking to the owner of a local off road shop and he was telling me these tires come of a small schoolboy motox, using a rear tire on the front- also said the tires just don t last!
I was wondering if the weight of the baggy would make any difference in the handling.
having spoken to so many people - i might just use some rain tires- like the MT60ś I started with!!
