Check out this site http://www.blackwatertires.com/ I swear by ITP tires. Get something 6 ply for the rear so they hold up when your ripping thru rocky trails.You can play a little bit with tire height and width on stock wheels.First determine which tire is best for your kind of riding then see what available sizes they come in.Hope this helps. :smiliethumbup: I dont suggest going bigger on a sport quad,keep your center of gravity low,f-ck ground clearance,Get a good skid plate and go like hell

You can mount new tires to your old rims unless they've sustained damage. If you're going with larger diameter tires, you may need to change your sprocket(s) to alter the final gearing of the ATV. The Blaster doen't have a lot of horsepower to play with and may have a hard time turning larger tires without some help.

I run 22's on my blaster when extreme trail riding...and 20's for the tracks..

The 22's work well. I used to use turf tamers, until I bought the spider tracs...

I run a 14 tooth front sprocket. If your blaster is stock then you run a 13 tooth. In either case, I find it ok...but i'm only 155lbs...the 13tooth is better with the larger tires, but unless your heavier, you probably would notice a difference...

i have 22X8.0X11's on my rear, anything bigger, and i have to take the platform that connects to the foot pegs off.
