Tires for MX or Flat Track

Ok I am racing our rzr in a TT Series. I have found some 13" "flat Track" style tires but can not find wheels to mate them to. So I guess I am going to start looking for some MX wheels/tires. Really I am just looking to flatten out my tire patch on the ground. I would like to run an 8" wheel with a 6"x2" offset. This will allow me to gain some width all the way around and will not rub. Also I would like to find a 22" or 23" tire so I gain some bottom end as we do not get over 45mph on the track.

Any suggestions for me? What do you mx guys run?

I do not want this to happen again as I am still getting the new roll cage built

Re: Tires for MX or Flat Track

Have you checked out the Carlisle All Trail? Made for hard pack applications and has a fairly flat contact patch. You can get them in 23/10.5/12 rear and 23/8/12 front sizes. You may have a hard time finding a set of wheels though.

Funny you mention those I just had some mounted on stock wheels yesterday. I will run a 2" spacer plus flip the wheels....I should be around 62-64" wide on stock wheels. The only jump is a very small roller and we really do not go into the air so I should be fine....I hope!

We run 25" Maxxis 4Speed fronts on all four for mx track. Light tire, performs well.
We dont do flat track or TT, so no suggestions there.
