I am going with a 200x front end on my 250SX. The last thing I need is the tire. I know that the correct tire size is 23.5X8X11. So now would be the time to go with a different size or stick to the OEM size so I'm asking what size tire you run on the front of your 200X and why? Tire would be for rocky to rocky, dirt trails and mud during irrigation season.
As I walk through the valley of the shawdow of death I have no fear because I am the meinest MF in the whole valley.

I'm going to be a bit vague here, I apologize. I had a really big front tire on my 84 200X that almost looked goofy. When I changed it out for a smaller front tire that didn't look so goofy by handling went to shnit. It handled so much better with the big goofy one. It probably would have been better off looking goofy but handling well.

22x7x11 Dunlop KT151 on the front to match the smaller rears. Might look goofy on your SX though assuming you have larger tires like most SX's do

23.5x8x11 on the front of mine. Handles very well in deep sand, on the trails, on rocks, in mud, and even on the street.
It was like a $45 Kenda tire from Dennis Kirk.

shipping up here is killer! Small stuff not so bad, but the big stuff, forget it. He is still trying to figure out what to charge me, I would pay $50 and be happy, (I hope he is not a member here!)
