I don't think they will mate. Not without custom wheel spacers.

 ahh thats not a problem, the ones I have the spindles are tiny in comparison to the Dt ones, So would have to either machine out the middle of the hub if thats even possible, or ditch them for some that have the same sized spindles but only need brackets and spacers made

The wr450F forks are upside down.

You'll be able to get them to fit for sure.

from looking at a sm wr at college the wheels look identical to my sm rims from a dtx but the rims are not excell cant remember what they are mind and the front calliper on them looks like my brembo but is not a brembo.

the spindle should fit so as said just a bracket but your standard calliper will not fit the disk properly and wear strange so try and get a calliper from it as well and use that with a bracket will make for better braking aswell =]

off of an 08 Wr125. Will be finding a caliper too as I quite like the thought of decent brakes up front. haha! :) in fairness I have a back supermoto wheel that will fit, so Just need a front but thought it best to get a pair :)

Nah the Cush drive is mint. You'll need cush drive rubbers. If they're anything like the rs then it'll cost you £££

rin fairness, my rear is only an inch bigger so I'd be tempted to just find a suitable supermoto tyre for the standard rear DT wheel and then just use the W supermoto front. Nice and quick way of getting sumoed. Alternatively, as I now have 2 DTs. Could just use the one im rebuilding to find a way of fitting the rear etc without having to bring the bike off the road. Saves pissing about with making the bracket for the front too

It's a worth while upgrade.

If it's a job worth doing it's worth doing right in my opinion.

Those excel rims are expensive and look the dogs bollox. So it's worth while spending your time making brackets to utilise the bigger discs. Hell if you're going bespoke might as well buy new front caliper to really slow things down.

Yeah, I've seen a few guys on here toy with different calipers. Not sure what I could use though? I guess if I make a bracket then I can make any caliper within reason to fit?

That's what I am doing.

I'm using four pot Aprilia front caliper and dual pot aprilia rear caliper for ultimate stopping power.

I've got USD's and aprilia rs125 wheels. It's not a case of will it fit. It won't fit. It's how can I make it fit.

Yes, mine are the WRX 125 ones

They are exactly the same fitment as DTX wheels

I got forks, front brake and wheels and it was all just a straight swap
