If anybody knows , i want to run a taller rim and skinner tire on the front on my yam. 225 dx. it has to fit the original brake/hub 3/100. so basicly im looking for a bigger rim with the tire that bolts right up. i have seen some 225's with a bigger rim and not the small orginal 22x11x8. any help would be good, and if anybody has one for sale would be better pm if you do?

I would like to find one like 23x8x11, somthing to get the front up more and a skinner tire.

I don't think you can do that, you are probably gonna have to swap front ends or something. But I am not sure.

If you want taller and narrower then you will need to do a front end swap or make and adaptor plate for yours. Not only are there no other rims that will bolt up but they would be off center if they did unless you use an adapter plate. If you just want taller you can swap to a 200E front rim which runs a 25" tire but then you will need the triple tree and hub/axle too since it is an extra inch wide.

I would go with some nice plastic first.:beer
