("85 T3)My front wheel is in decent shape,just bought an N.O.S Dunlop KT761 for that.Deff. want Trekkers for the rear,was thinking 20" is the way to go?If so are new 10" Tecate rear wheels made,if not what are my options?Any advice would be great!

the rear hub pattern is 4x156 and those are available.
I had 18" trekkers and they sat too low for me and had big gaps between the aluminum rims and tires. Your gearing will change some with 20" tires but rear sprocket sizes are incredibly easy to get for 84/85 T3

Based on tire circumference heres what i come up with for gearing.
With 22 inch. tires spin 917.19 revs per mile and with 42/13 gearing thats 2963 countershaft revs
With 20 inch. tires spin 1008.92 rev per mile and with 38/13 gearing thats 2949 countershaft revs so ever so slightly gear up.
With 20 inch tires and 42/14 gearing youd have 3026.76 countershaft revs in a mile
So enough fun with a calculator anyway haha put on 20s with a 38 tooth rear sprocket and call it good. If you want a great tire for racing or drifting I love my ITP Holeshots, hope this helps.
