Try Rocky Mountain ATV, if they don't have them then I don't know who would.

We have 21" on ours and they work great. Rockymountainatv.com is the place to get them .

23-7-10 in the front, 22-11-10 in the rear. If its 4WD, I wouldn't stray too far away from the stock sizes. I am running 21-11-10 Sand Geckos on my Scrambler and have had no adverse effects. They don't throw sand like the Sand Stars, but they hook up VERY well. Got them from Rocky Mountain ATV on Douglas Black Label aluminum rims (0.160) for $159 delivered to my front door.

We run the same tire on ours and it works fine for us.

Geckos don't throught that big of roost. A sand star or hauler will through a bigger roost.

Haulers throw roost like a big dog, i have a set of 20x11x10 9 paddle that are superb for racing and the occasional BRRRRPPP at our buddy lol.

I run 22's on my DS. There are only two 22-inch rear paddles available, SCAT-TRAK and Sand Tires Unlimited. Both are pricey, but high-performance (which would probably be wasted on a Scrambler, no offence, I own one). The interaction with the 4WD system might be an issue. Tires are not true to size, a 20-inch tire from one manufacturer can be larger diameter than a 21-inch tire from another.

I run Sand Skate II's on my Raptor. If I'm on a trail ride, I usually have to bring up the rear because no one wants to follow me with the size of the roost I throw up.:D They are very aggressive tires and I'm not sure how they would do on a Scrambler. I used Rocky Mountain ATV.

You cant throw more roost with any paddle but the Hauler. The Sand Star comes close, but even dirt Wheels says not quite the same level. Gecko's are nice for all around duning with turning and cruising, but it still has some hill power.
