I bought some 20" ITP holeshots on 10" rims and put them on my 200x. I hadn't ridden it much with them on the machine until today and all I can say is: WOW!!! I tooke the trike out to the local pits and all the hills I got stuck on or ran out of power, I ripped right up!!! those old tires I had were just too heavy and tall. THe machine has alot better acceleration now and doesnt lose rpm like crazy going up hills. I am very impressed with the $40 investment!!!!!

Un-sprung weight, and rotational weight make a huge difference in the performance of a machine....
