    tires vs rim sizes?

    Is there a chart or something to use as a guide to picking the proper size tire for the size (width) of the rim?

    I'm just wondering if i can put a take off from the YZ motard 4.25" rim with a 150/60 tire and mount it to the KTM 5" rim?

    Thanks

    Is this what you're after?

    http://www.hagon-shocks.co.uk/WheelTab.htm

    give the link a second, it was sluggish, but worked after a few tries


    And from what I get on that chart, it's a normal fitment for both rims with that tire.

    That's what i'm looking for, thanks Chris
    So it looks like the 150 is standard for the 4.25" wheel but will work on the 5" where the 160 is standard. I'll give it a try seeing i have a set of tires for it..

    Now if i can just figure out the Stator problem i'm having with the bike, i may actually be able to ride it within a month or so (quickly learning i do NOT like KTM)
