mounted simply in place of 8x20, tight fit, deck not leveled, cuts ok, radial tires suck, overall - ok

technically, the fast & easy way to stick 20-21'' wheels - is to flip motor mounts upside-down, add 4 of 2.25'' spacers to keep wheelmotor away from frame and mount it on 4 corner bolts (2 middle holes not centered and will not align). not the best or reliable solution, but instant gratification, you don't have to drill the frame, not intrusive and easy (though you will have to pull wheelhub to flip the mount), but you ready to go in an hour or two.

better solution - bracket, which you can adjust depending of wheel size (the bigger the wheel, the higher it mounts on the frame to keep deck level horizontal).
