21 Inch Front 18 Inch Rear Tire. Are They Worth It?

[Durty]

I'm sure this subject has been beat like a dead horse, but I've got to ask it anyway. I'm thinking about that combination for my SG but I keep getting don't do it you will regret it. And the other side do it you won't notice any difference. I'm wondering if anyone can tell me a honest opinion. Thanks

I have a 21 front with stock rear... In my opinion the biggest difference is in slow speed handling where the front feels "heavy ". High speed maybe a little more wobble in curves when riding them very aggressive, and I usually only notice this when hitting a bump or big dip in the curve. That being said I will not give up my 21"

Durty... I love my 21". No problems with handling In my opinion. Only regret I have is that I should have went 23"!!!

Thats what i hear also papabear. Did you get the ThunderMax? I did works great. I have the 21" X 16". Handles great. . . Mr.Durty no need in getting a bigger wheel for back. Down fall with going with bigger wheels is more $$$$ BUT if i had it to do over again and save a little money, I would have gotten the lowering kit for the front tubes. It will raise your front up 2" and if you have short legs you will be on your toes. I lowered my back with an 2" lowering kit easy install as long as you have a jack.

Thanks Crumb, I'm going to see if the guys at my shop will let me take there's for a ride. That would be the best way to see if it's something I would want. I appreciate your comments. Be safe out there. And look out for those dumb ass four wheelers!

No problem, I do feel the differences are minimal, but yet noticeable, ride one and let us know what you think.
