I'm looking to replace the back tires on my Tri-Moto 125 since the original Dunlop knobbies are almost bald, I've noticed that 22-11x8 is tricky to find in most of the common styles so I've narrowed it down to either the Duro Mud & Sand, Duro Knobby, and Carlisle Stryker. I mostly ride on grass and dirt and snow in winter, and soft muddy ground in spring. Of the three choices which would be best for me and my unsuspended trike? Thanks

The Stryker and Mud&Sand are pretty similar. Though I'm not a big fan of them, they are durable and have a bit better traction than the OEM knobby tires.
There is a trade off however, a much heavier construction makes for a more rigid tire on this non-suspended trike.
Change to ride quality is more than a slight..the ride is much harsher since the tire is a great deal stiffer.
The Duro Knobby is the closest to the OEM..and would offer a reasonable amount of cushion.

Do you know if they are or close to same size as the oem Dunlops? Cause I've seen a few tires that say 22-11x8 on the side wall but are 2-3 inches shorter
