so my 87 250es has splits in the tread, Not sidewalls .
leaking slime and unusable.
I have a set of 200es big red tires but on the older rims, great shape and
holding air for years.
Thinking it may be easier to make some sort of adapter plate
instead of swapping tires .
...further proof that I'm getting old and lazy and may be losing
my grip on reality.

I came to my senses.
I had some harley hardcores, machine shop dudes come by and they suggested some sort of
'spacer' that had a one way clutch to make a live axle trike more conducive to
pavement.
I also heard that the isuzu trooper has the same hole spacing as the 85+ Hondas.
I need a new hobby.
Hope everyone is enjoying SPRINGtime.

its like $10 mount/dismount per tire at les schwabs or most other tires stores. If the tires are the same size, I would just do it "the right way" :D
my $0.02

You're my hero.
I forgot all about lesschwalb.
I ALmost threw some sx tires and rims on it 'cause the es has racks.
Lots o' chainsaw tree work going on.
Don't forget, all trikers get to stay here free at the campground.
Just found out today that the U of O wants to have a
'tracktown' benefit concert here for the victims in Boston.
Simulcast for all the bands so they'll play for free.
Sounds like fun.
My vote is that all concert goers stay for free overnight and go home after breakfast.
I Love Oregon springtime.
