Tire size?

[ASTORIA]

I'm new to rebuilding old mini bikes. I'm not sure what size tires and rims I need to get for trail riding. I'm not doing any crazy off roady rally stuff, I'm just riding on dirt a lot.

IMO, 6" wheels prove too small for the sand and loose dirt here. 8" seems to be the minimum size for me.

The driving factor is always about fitment though.

I have a 212 predator on the way. 6.5 horse. I need the torque more than speed .

The larger tires will feel better off road. Let some air out slightly for a softer ride. :thumbsup:
