tire fit on a 250sx??

[crd00]

Will a 23.5x8x11 front tire with a 250r, 200x, or a 350x rim fit on the my 1985 250sx? Or would I have to get a different front end?

If you use a 200x hub and make it work.

ok if I put a 200x hub on it and put the 23.5x10x8 tire on, would the tire hit the fender if I bottomed the front shocks out?

Some guys run a complete 200x front end on their sx. You can just use the tire and rim. But would have to make up some spacers for the axle. The front end off the X gives you lighter weight, disk brakes, more suspension etc..

o ya i know that people go with the 200x front end, I was going to do that in the first place but I was just wondering about the tire because i thought it would be less work but by the sounds of its not. I'm just going to go with the 200x front end(if i can get one)

23.5x8.5x11 can be done on a stock 250SX but you need a special rim and a spacer.........here's what mine looked like at one time...I ended up swapping it out for a 200x front though. I dont know much about it as it was on the SX when I bought it.
