I want a good set of front tires for MX riding. I have no idea what tire to buy. I have 18/11/8 turff tamers grooved on the rear. Any help would be great .Right now im still running stock front tires and rims. But I need new ones soon both front rims are bent.
Dont know if this matters i have a 400ex

Get some radials, either from nacs or JL racing. Both advertise in dirtwheels.

K&K also sells radials for $130 a set +shipping. Radials only come in 1 size that I know of. I just found something out, grooved radials and wet clay do not work well together!

Go with the radials like marshall, or kumato. They dont make rikens anymore. They are good for mx dry to loose dirt. But dont try and turn in mud they are not self cleaning tires. They cake up and go straight.

Yeah, I think they only come in one size. And like mentioned earlier, are for racing, not riding in the woods, mud or whatever else. I would put those on to race and switch back to stock when just riding around.
