Damn Tire size question again

I did use the search but there are so many variables involved in getting new tires. Right now I am running a Michelin 90/90-18 up front and a 120/90-18 in the back. I am going to give the new dunlop 952's a try now. They only have one size for the front which is a 80/100-21 which I am pretty sure will fit. For the rear there is a 110/90 and a 120/90. I am not sure which one to go with since stock was a Dunlop 100/100. I'm leaning toward the 110/90 but just want to make sure I get the order right.

Thanks

The 80/100-21 is what comes stock on the KDX 220, the 110/90-18 will fit. :cool: The 100/100-18 and the 110/90-18 are real close. The 120/90-18 is just a little thinner then the 110/100-18

Heres the specs on the Dunlop 110/90-18

Applicable Rims- Overall Diameter - Overall Width

thanks for the info...i was looking at the Dunlop website and it never ocurred to me to look at the chart for a different tire that came in the 100/100 size.

Looks like the 110/90 should be a real close replacement though.

thanks again

Did your search show this?

Check the tire size chart..old metric, new metric and all that stuff.

You might check that front size again. ;)

Unless you changed it for some strange reason..it's a 21" up front.

Yeah...typo I'm sure..but might as well have the right numbers to start with!!

oh, HELL no, I don't really have an 18 on the front...that was a serious typo! :yikes: I went and got the 80/100-21 for the front and the 110/90-18 for the rear. I haven't got them on the bike yet but they look about the same as my Michelins. Was going to order them from Rocky Mountain but my local dealer only wanted $86 for the pair.

I'm going on a 55 mile poker run on the 21st and plan on testing them then. I'll report back with how they work since they are so much cheaper than the M12's.
