Nearly completed my etrike but dont like the back tyre. I have a 12" wheel with a scooter tyre but would prefer a larger contact patch(flat tread type). Could do with being 110mm wide ideally. Does anyone know of such a tyre?

Unusual tyre there, what about a trailer tyre?

Just one concern though - with a bigger contact patch at the rear it won't be as easy to do tail slides on that hairpin at the bottom of your track.
Photos soon please!
