Rear tire size for 300?
Do you guys run 110 or 120 (or larger) in the rear? I see my 14 300 comes with 6 days extreme in a 140.

I generally run a Bridgestone 404 in 120. I liked the 6 days for sand riding, never tried it in the mountains or rocks.

I ride in mostly sand, no rocks or hard pack. My go to tire is Michelin S12, just wondering if you guys run a standard 110 or upsize to the 120. Looks like several run the 120's.

since all tires are a little different... I try to stick to a 110 type size... i just dont like the heavy feel of a 120....

Depends what you want. Big footprint, good hookup, less responsive... or improved tip in and better throttle response. |

Same experience with the stock tyres . A Pirelli 120 is about the same as a Metzler 140.There are some good threads on how tyres are measured.
