Rear- Ebay is great. The lug pattern is 4/156. The back spacing on the first-gen Tecates is 3.5 x 5 or something? I'm guessing the second-gen's are the same, but don't quote me on that. The front is going to be a little more tricky to find I'm guessing.

You can always buy some 1986/7?(not 85) bayou klf hubs and run the Honda 4 x 110 bolt pattern with Honda 8" wheels on the rear. There are more tire options there. Also, there were a few "group buys" or someone made some 10" rims for the front that will fit the 250r, 350x, and the Tecate front hub.

I saw that post about the front tires. Was wondering if I could get ITP or Douglas rims for the rear, I don't really want to go with 8" rims or honda pattern.

Who made the front rims?

Also, were can I get a new front tire, 23x9x11?

You can get in on Xowners front rim buy.....same bolt pattern as the R. The rear rims are the same as a Polaris predator so there are quite a few options for the rears.

I know the stock tecate front tire is a 23x9x11, will a 23x8x11 tire fit on the stock wheel without any problems?

23x9x11 stock 23x8x11 ???

Well I don't have to be your grilfriend to see your about an 1" short.

To me that means you'll be at an increased PSI to confidently hold the bead...on a front tire your wrists won't be thanking you.

Lots of guys on the track run a DURO front for MX holeshot type Pattern. I couldn't tell you if the rim was stock or not.
