You can go taller or shorter since 21" isn't that common-try 20"x10"x10" or 20"x11"x10" or 22"x11"x10" is very common- ask your tire guy for those sizes. the extra width & height shouldn't cause a problem.

Some 11" wide tires with aggressive side lugs will rub the swing arm when pushed aggressively sideways. Check how much clearance you have if you like doing donuts.

something else to consider when choosing a tire. More trivia to either confuse you or help narrow down a choice.
A couple of examples... A 13 tooth counter sprocket with a 31 tooth axle sprocket is a good torque combo. A lot of buggys with no reverse run these gears . A 22" tire works well to gain more top speed without loosing torque. Most buggys with reverse use a 16/32 combo so a smaller tire, 21" or 20" is needed so you don't loose torque while keeping top end speed. |
