Best places to purchase tires?
Permalink  
 

So yeah i need a new set for my DT soon, what websites do you guys recommend?

 

Also I'm thinking maybe the Maxxis ones as they look agressive as hell but what are they like on the road?

 

Also what sizes can i get? I want a nice fat one on the back :P

Yeah i'm still confused about tires sized though what do the numbers mean exactly? And can i fit any tire that has this same size measurement? Or could i fit slightly bigger tires?

I want to fit a nice fat one on the back kinda of like the TW125 as that has a huge back tire lol

140/80/18 = 140 is width in mm. 80 is percentage of the width for the side wall so 80%of 140 is the height of the sidewall. 18 is rim diameter in inches

oh yea 140 is prob the widest u wanna go for a 125, maxxis do a 140 at 18in

go to the "useful links" section and then "parts websites" thread, some of thos sites will do tyres, racespec.co.uk is prob ur easiest option
