    10 inch rear rims on an atc...

    Any reason it would NOT be a good idea of running 22 X 9 X 10s tires on a 350x or 250SX? I ask because I can buy a set for a good price local to me.

    Seems OK to me. Tecates and Scramblers have rear 10s stock. My cousin has 10s on the back of his 250SX. It works out pretty well considering the brake drum goes inside of the one wheels and can cause clearance issues for some smaller wheels.

    You might not like the skinnier tire. They look cool but the wide tire for the atc helps allot with stability I think and they are better in the mud and sand too.
    I am running 12's on the back of my 250es and they are 10 wide and I wish I stuck with 12

    I've got 10 inch rims on the back of my 250sx with 22x12x10 bearclaws. This is the only rear suspension trike I've owned, so I have nothing to compare it to, but I find the ride is very rough. Partially because bearclaws are very stiff, and a 22" tire, on a 10" rim, doesn't leave a lot of sidewall for flex.
    Rides:
    1985 250sx
    1982 ATC185s
    1984 200es
