Re: rim and tire size/ size lift
Well said, Earle. It doesn't get any 'plainer' that that. Many people
have 'street sets' and 'trail sets' for the terrain they wheel in. If
you've got the storage space, that is the way to go. Plus, you can get
the bling wheels for the street and steel ugliness for the trail. ;)
