what would happen if i ran a 22/12/8 tire on a 22/11/8 rim? would the tire come off? has anyone seen a pure sports realtor, or a 20 in. fast trekker? i want that design of tire, but in a 22/11/8 design. any1 know where to get some?

... An 8' rim is an 8' rim or 8x8 (allthough I have seen 8x5) - you will be fine, the tire itself is wider but the bead to bead size stays the same.

plk- have seen 20" Trekkers and like the center lug. I just bought 22"x11"x10" (on .190 Douglas alum.) Trekkers 8) . The tread a little different (no larger center lug), but they hooked up well in Attica. rockymountainatv.com has decent prices on tire/wheel combos.

al, i like the 22 fast trekkers too, but i want something with that center lug. it looks awesome, and it has good bite. i was first gonna get the 22 trekkers, but i want that ZIP!! to the tire. like i can't stand mayo, only miracle whip. i need zip!! i dunno, i look at the 20in. and i am hooked..... well, if i can't find anything good, ill go for trekkers or realtors

The only problem with a 1-2" wider tire is they are slightly harder to mount and remove later. ;)

Just a word of advice...Stay away from realtors. They are a fun tire, but if you plan on riding competitively you would be much better off with another meat. The main selling point of realtors is they get some amount of traction in juat about any situation and they are very tough. For an all around fun tire, they work and you will get plenty of ride time from them. There are certainley better "all purpose" tires out there, however.

ok, thanks finger, nos, i put it as 22 as tire height, 11 as rim width and 8 as rim height.

The 11 is the width of the tire...not the rim

Yep your right. Most rear rims are only 8 or 9" wide. lol
