What Size DUnlop?
I'm probably going to try a 756 or 952 Dunlop for my next rear tire. Any reccomendations on size? The sizes available are:
756
100/100-18
110/100-18
952
110/90-18
120/90-18
756
100/100-18
110/100-18
952
110/90-18
120/90-18

Stock for a KDX is a 100 width. Height I'm not sure about...
The D756 will wear very quickly. I don't know your conditions, but it's basically a mud tire. The D952 is what I'm using now, and holds up longer than the 756.
Your best bet is to buy the tire with the best fit. Go with the 100/100 756; those are the dimensionas of the stock tire.

I'll probably go with the 952 for that reason. I have a Dunlop on it now. It's the original tire and is 100/100.
The 952 in 110/90 is (assuming all the models are sized the same) would be 10mm wider but the same height.
In the 120/90 the tire would be 20mm wider and 8mm taller.
Basically I was trying to determine the pros and cons of the 110 and 120. The 120 may be too big of a tire.

120/90 is fine on the kdx, not noticeably different than a 110/100

I got the 110/90 tire home and put it up next to the stock 100/100 Dunlop 739 and looks to be almost the same size, which I guess it is. I'm thinking a 120 would have worked too.
My 739 is toast and still has pretty good bite. Cycle has them on sale locally for about $39. I might buy one of them also as a spare for down the road.

I've never noticed a difference turning, all feel similar too me
756 wears too fast, and I never liked it for traction
The others wear like iron but don't hook up in slimey crap like the M5B does
