Baja Warrior use tubed or tubeless tires?

[Jaymo]

Are the factory tires for the Warrior tubed, or are they tubeless?

I want to get a spare set of tires and need to know if I need to get tubes, too.

Plus, I'll need to know when I install my front brakes/tire.

They are tubeless but you can tubes.

Sweet. Thanks.
I wonder if 20x7-8 tires would work on the Baja?
Northern has them for $49/each.
They would give (hopefully) 1/2" more ground clearance.

Also, what is the absolute largest tire that can be used on the stock Warrior wheels?
I want to increase ground clearance and tire width as much as possible without frame/fork mods.


I already know that I need a pipe bender because I want to build my own bikes.
I want to start with a larger, heavier duty, more powerful version of the Baja with springer rear.

Then, there's the street bobber I want to build, but that's another story.

I personally don't own one but give it time someone that does will chime in on your question about larger tires :thumbsup:

I think I used a Turf Saver 20x7x8 on mine but had to relocate the rear fender and mount.

 

[Moedog07]

Just checked it was a 20x8x8.

So, an 8" wide tire WILL fit on the Warrior?
20x8-8 would make me happy.

I had to move the sprocket or re-space the sprocket. Also had to remove and remount the fender but it is on there and works well. Off hand I don't remember doing much else to get it to fit. Trial and error. I couldn't get the pictures to post.
Mine has a 212 Predator and a rebuilt stock jackshaft.

I went with a stock size tire but a lot more aggressive tread on the rear of mine

Joekd, what tires are those and where did you buy them?
