for size, you want 4.8 x 8 for standard size... you can go for a bigger tire with rounded shoulders and smooth tread for bigfoot lights, though I hear they are a pain to get on the rim.

You can only run the larger size on the rear tires, unless you have a bigfoot front fork.

That link is the wheelbarrow tread, i presume with grooves. The slick are somewhere else, I didnt look... perhaps if you email them.

The first number (the 4.8 of the 4.8 x 8) is the width of the tire, the second number (the 8 of the 4.8 by 8) is the size rim that they fit onto. So 4.8 x 8 is a 4.8 inch wide tire, on an 8 inch rim.

Hope that helps in your looking for tires.
