6-wheels - brothers from other mothers: My ALT125 & ATC200S

[Wickedfinger]

... its crazy how tire sizes actually differ by manufacturer. The ALT has 22X11X8 Dunlops and the Honda has the stock 22X11X8's. They are both are about 4 lbs psi but the ALT tires tower over the ATC's. Also, look how much bigger the 125 is than the 200S.

hmmm... them tires.... wow

That is the same with all kinds of tires, including truck tires. You should see how much they differ once you get up into the larger diameter range. The funiest I think was a set of 38 inch Dicl Cepeck tires I hade that acually meassured more like 36 inch. I am not sure how some of these manufacturers meassure thier products, but I wish they would all get on the same page. :wondering

nice ALT by the way, very respectable. :)

The width of the rim it is mounted on has a direct impact on tire height, especially rounded knobby tires.

I never realised that the ALT was bigger then the 200s. The seat hight looks so much higher on the ALT too, I bet it feels alot different to ride too.

IMO the ALT's were the worst handling trike ever made - (TimSr will dissagree with me I'm sure, he LOVES his) I love mine too for some crazy reason. The handling between it and the 200S is night and day, and the 200S isn't anything to write home about either. The front end is way too lite and it pushes like crazy through turns - at low or high speed, dosent matter. Then again, I am 30lbs heavier than its maximum weight capacity of 220. lol

The 200s looks like it has 21's. The ALT's tires have much more air in them...but if you say they are both 22's at 4psi then I have to believe you.
