Looking to get some shoes for the 570, upping to 27" or 28" will be buying new rims. Here is where the dilemna starts...
Not sure wether to buy 12" or 14" rims. What are the pros/cons of each?
As for tires, I'm torn between the Maxxis Zilla, Interco Swamp Lite, and of course OL2's.
I ride lots of trails with rocks and logs as well as mucky mud throughout. Quite a few water crossings with greasy bottoms, but in between trails is "high speed" open dirt roads, So I want to still be stable at higher speeds and able to break loose when necessary like in tight corners.
I will be buying a clutch kit, but do not plan on buying new axles which is why I'm leaning towards the lighter Zilla vs the heavy outlaw. The swamp lite is an option because of a buddy I ride with sometimes, doesn't have any real complaints on them except they are soft, which worries me for rocky climbs.
I will be dropping quite a bit of coin on this whole package and do not want to be stuck with a set-up that doesn't really work for me. Anything and everything helps!
Thanks
