Depends what you want to do with your buggy and where you are riding? Is you buggy only used off road or is it street legal and you need a DOT tire.

I like a tall front tire for trail riding but my tires would not work very well climbing hills. I currently have a 31 inch Super Swamper as my front tires.

A very common front tire is the Home Plate Tires sold by drews.

The Home Plate Tires are super light and run about 27 or 28 inches tall

My buggy is strictly for off road use. But I do hill climbs and ride mostly on dirt. I just don't know how big to go.

You cannot go wrong with the home plate tires. Most popular tire in the woods.

7.00x15 's is a good size. I think they are around 29or 30" tall and they are a bias ply so you get a thicker sidewall.
Hows that motor runnin of yours after I rejeted it?

I have 7.00x15. The brand name is courser. they are a light truck mud and snow tire. On 5 inch wide wheels they are 30 inches tall. I got mine from the local tire store. Just went in and asked what was available in that size. I know the avatar is realy small :cry: but they are what is on car in that picture.

I run 33"x9" BFG's on the front. You cant get them anymore in a mud terrain only in a all terrain.They are too much tire for a woods car anyways,stick with the 7.00x15 or the home plates.
