Stock wheel and tire options

keithmaine · 10-19-2015, 09:35 AM

I know the USA rear is 17 and the front 18, but from what I read the tire size ratio in the spec sheet is not what comes on the bike. So with that has anyone done a list that specs out all the tires that will fit the standard as shipped wheels?

Thanks spudrider I will check them out

You're welcome.

Since you are a TW200 owner, you are well familiar with many tire options for the 18-inch front wheel. However, since the RX3 is more street oriented than the TW200, I like front tires which will perform well at high speeds on pavement, in addition to performing well on gravel and dirt roads.

No problem, Keith. A lot of forums will scold people to use the search function.

We don't do that here.

We are happy to help whenever we can.

We try hard to set ourselves apart from the typical forums. Any flaming that takes place here is good natured, and usually only after a friendship is established.

If someone is rude here, we give them a little slack. If they are consistently rude, we call them out. We don't want to descend to the typically rude level of most forums. If we did, I wouldn't enjoy being here as much as I do.
