Dirt tire recommendations?

[Dan Hay]

I'm going to run my mini bike at the Lonestar Roundup in Austin. Its a small dirt oval. I've noticed with my 5" wheel and 410-350 tire, left turn leans will drag the sprocket.

So, my question is: what do you recommend to gain more ground clearance for running on a dirt oval? Also, this mini is very torquey, It'll throw my 250 lb but right off, so a bigger rear wheel would also help with that.

Thanks,

I would just get a smaller sprocket if the tire is still in good shape.

What kind of bike do you have? How much room to do you have for height and width of the tire(s)? Do you need them to stay 5" wheels, or could you bump up an inch or two?
