would say not too go any bigger than 33s with that wheel base. I ran 33s on a 90" wheel base and found it too be a good tyre size too wb. now i have 103" whith 33s but im looking to step up 37s soon :D just need to finish choping the front guards more

in my opinoin i would run

80"-85"=31s
85"-94"=33s
95"-99"=35s
100"-105"=37s :armsup:

this is just a rough guide of what i would run :cool:

i ran 33's and 37's on 86.5/ 87"wb

the 33s it went shit loads betta

would have liked to try 35's but didnt

now at 104" on 37's and would change it at all :cool:
