@SpookDog on the rear of my friends DT50 I have and I have to say I liked it. It’s a little expensive however they make a front and back that for once are the perfect, factory spec sizes, they have a really even curve between treat and nice contact patch.
I think if you consider something like the Bridgestone Trailwing or the tradition Kenda ‘trail tire’ then Pirelli’s Mt21 seems like the natural step up. In my Opinion there’s not many tires that’ll actually hold up to the mark, especially when it comes to their 60/40-50/50 specifications.
I genuinely would say it’s a true 60/40 tire that
Much nicer chunky, spaced knobbies without sacrificing rolling resistance or fully committing to the drawbacks of a full off road knobbly tire.

I’m looking to get a pair myself providing I don’t just go back to old school trail tires

@H-W01 said in WR 125X wheels:

Found a set of wr125x supermoto wheels from the 2009-2015 model was wondering if they would fit in the standard 2007 DT125RE forks?

Easier job if you have the forks to match - this is how I did the DTR SM I once had but that was with DTX forks so I cant say if the WR ones are the same diameter as the RE ones you have to enable a straight swap

@Stevie-Wonder your areas better than mine then

@jonne123 what I mean, is it will cost a lot of money to make it a sleeper. Best off excepting it for what it is. Will out perform the newer four strokes out the box.

I think it's 57 on the rear and 15 on the front are the standard sizes.

@jonne123 i think these would be good for the street https://m.motonet.fi/fi/tuote/9821501?ajoneuvo=2371&vuosimalli=1994 https://m.motonet.fi/fi/tuote/9821502?ajoneuvo=2371&vuosimalli=1994

@JazzyBLY Where are you looking to buy this 'Kit' from? Post a link please so we can see some photo's.

@JJfitz28 When you find some suitable originals, would you be open to selling the supermoto wheels?

@Jgb19830 i think you should get one from a dt125x i have a supermoto converted dt125re and the speedo shows around 15-20kmh over what you are going. though my speedo doesnt work anymore since the wire broke and i cant be arsed to buy a new wire

On DTX SM rims I run 120 front and 150 rear Conti Attack SM tyres, you don't really wanna go much wider than them on standard rims as the profile is pretty agressive, takes alot of lean to get full use of the curve but they feel very good on tight mountain roads.

@dan28
What if I ran 55 rear an then went up two teeth on the front

@britshgigolo Speak to Paul Ritson at SFX wheels, he may be able to advise you???

Scroll down to see the FB groups and some dudes who break DT's. Join the groups and message those dudes to enquire for parts.

@Bluestoesonnose @Glynn123 is correct, front hubs are very different. The only way you could have two sets of wheels and one set of brakes is by swapping the forks from another bike like a KTM. As caliper brackets to convert enduro brakes to larger SM brakes are more plentiful with KTM's. You would also need a custom spacer for the headset and you might have to fanny around with the wheel spacers as well, but they are relatively small problem's to fix if you plan on achieving your goal.

@admiral323 Yes but you will need some other parts from the WRX as well. Ie. Front forks which will most likely need a custom spacer made up, full front brake, wheel spacers front & rear and the speedo drive. The DTX is an easier swap see here dude;
