I have a 1997 Max II with the 18hp B&S Vanguard.
I am currently running 22" rawhides on the old style rims (non-k rims), but am thinking about getting new tires and rims.
Here are my requirements:
1. Tires must perform as good as the rawhides on land and water
2. Would like some additional ground clearance, so taller than 22" tires
3. I do not mind heating up the Max body and bending it to provide ground clearance (should be able to fit a 25" or 26" tire).
4. Now where can I buy these rims and tires?
I have heard some folks are running low psi (0 to 1) and don't have a problem with popping a bead or tires spinning on the rim. What is this rim and tire setup?
Any downsides to running the taller tire?
