Looking to upgrade my rims, as well as the tires, on my Hawkeye 300 4x4. What's the biggest/best tire size to run on these machines? I see the stock is 22x7-12 and 22x10-12. Looking at 25" tires, looks like they should clear just fine. Anyone have pictures or suggestions? Thanks!

A 25" may be a little big.... it will rob some noticeable horse power when taking a 3" diameter jump on a 300cc machine that only puts out ~20HP to start out with. If you do decide to go that big, a clutch kit will definitely be in your future..... pending they even make one for the Hawkeye model?!?!
