Enduro tire size for the KDX.
I was looking for some dot approved enduro type tires. I can't figure out the sizing difference.
Does anyone know how to convert the numbers? I have a spare set of rims I want to install these on.
I know parts for everything are hard to find right now. I don't want any crappy tires for sure.
Hoping someone has done this before.

If you lend someone $20, and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.

Re: Enduro tire size for the KDX.
Are you looking for true street tires for the stock 21" and 18" wheels or are you wanting something on and off road that is DOT legal or ???

Are you just looking to understand what the tire sizes mean? Tire Size is a good resource

For example:
https://www.motosport.com/dirtbike/dual-sport-dot-tires
Here's a Dunlop:
https://www.motosport.com/dunlop-d606-r ... -X001-Y001
It is 120% of 90 mm wide and 90 mm tall for an 18" rim. 108 mm wide. Stock knobby tire is 110 mm wide.

Re: Enduro tire size for the KDX.
Thanks everyone! I have found a few sets of tires that will work out. I mostly just run around the neighborhood (pavement) for a little excitement. knobbies on pavement is dangerous.

Re: Enduro tire size for the KDX.
Shinko K244 front and Kenda K270 rear are good 50/50 on/off road tire choices.
I've read where these have good on road manners and decent off road too.

x2 on the Kenda K270. Excellent 50/50 tire, as long as you dont want to play in the mud
