There is more to tires than just overall size. Look at weight also.

I have 6 ply dirt devils, the size I'm running (23x8-11) is only 14.5lbs per tire. That was lighter than the 20 inch tires on the rear when I got the buggy. Only slightly (I think 2lbs) heavier than the front 18 was. I run the same tire front and rear with different offset rims so I can have one spare.

Truthfully I didn't notice any power lost due to such a bigger tire due to being close to the same weight overall. I did go ahead and tune for lower end and added an intake spacer (also helps make power lower) but been thinking about removing the spacer.

Overall I do like the dirt devils so far. They have been a good all around tire for me.
