Damn. I was hoping they would fit. To be honest, I am not sure if i want to go back to the sb8's. They are a great tire, they grip well, and they are light, but ive gone through 2 sets this season alone. Im thinking of getting an npj for the rear if I can find one through the distributors that my old shop carries.

Yup. Waiting on the Maxxis DTH as a rear tire. Although with Tonics coming through Atomlab from Taiwan next year....

Incidentally if you get Small Blocks again, I'd highly recommend trimming them. Better cornering and clearance, light weight, and only takes like 30 minutes.

No dude, they're huge. I put my 1.95" SB8 back on, but trimmed, so I could slam my wheel. I'd say comparable to a 2.35" SB8.

OK so this park is all prefab. Slick metal. There's a miniramp section with hipped quarters in and out. a small jump with a rail, flat rail, a ldge, and a quarter to bank. The bank part of that equation is honestly like 2 feet wide. You'd probably enjoy the miniramp though.
