- 8 wheels what tires for that wheel ?
Tire Size 23/8/12 on all 4 wheels. Dont go with the heavy wide tires in the rear. It will rob too much power. | |

A wider tire does not put more tire on the ground. It takes a certain size contact patch at a set tire presssure to hold up the weight of your machine. A wider tire will have a wider contact patch and a narrow tire will have a longer contact patch. Either way you will have the same amount of tire on the ground just distributed differently. Those taller and wider tires weigh more and will rob more power from that little 170 motor. 23/8/12's will do a great job on the rear of that machine. | |
