  2. First off the Maxxis CC is not a 20" tire. It will only fit a 19" rim.
    And if huge tire is what you want just get 'this'
    (http://tinyurl.com/7nuex).

    There arent alot of fat 20" tires out there that are bigger than
    20x2.25 at the mostyou could try a Maxxis Max Daddy just check
    maxxis.com and look in BMX tire.

  7. Theres a Monty 19x2.7 on unicycle.co.uk.Check that...But it would
    probably work best on a try-all rim which is wider than the Alex or KH
    rim. Shipping would be alot from the UK though

  10. You don't want one of those big "chopper" fat tires. Those are pretty
    useless.

    For a trials rim, try the Monty 2.7 and tell us about it, I don't think
    anyone's used it on a unicycle yet and said how it was. A wider tire
    "would" be better for skinnys, but 2.5 (Maxxis CC) is plenty wide
    enough. Why bother trying to get a wider tire when you don't even know
    how the tire performs? Unless you have the money, then go for it.
    Otherwise I say a regular trials tire works fine.

    How so? The dyno fireball is a "chopper" tire, and i belive Kris holm
    rode one for a while.

    Okay, well I meant the 4" tire mentioned above. Just because a tire is
    wider doesn't mean it's better.

    its not 4", its not even 3", its about the same as a trials tire, just
    slick. It would be good for street.

  14. I know tires are never really the measurment they say they are.

    Have you ever actually ridden this tire? It would probably suck for
    just about anything. Even so, just because it says 4" on the side
    doesn't mean it would be a good trials tire, which is what I originally
    intended to say.

    thats not the tire im talking about. The twenty g will fit any 20" bmx
    rim. Its around 3.0" and pretty slick. Xavier rides a slick tire,
    spencer tryed a shaved luna on his trials and i think he liked it too.

  16. You can get the Schwalbe Big Apple tire in a 20x2.35" size. I think it's
    about $30 from their website. i can't justify buying more stuff right
    now, but it looks like it could be a real nice tire for a true 20"
    rim.
