Default Tire Sizes

Hi!

I have been researching many different
types of tires to replace my stock tires.
Now I am wondering what sizes would one
recommend for the BF 650i?
I would prefer to stick with a 12" rim.

Thanks,

Go with at least a 26" tire to get a 12" wide rear tire. I had a hard time choosing between 26 or 27. I went with 27 because I like the clearance and the brute has plenty of power for them, especially if you add a module or cdi.

I agree, i stuck with 26" tires, and gained an inch of ground clearance. They look nice also, check my pics.

Im not sure if you have decided what kind of tires you are going to get, but I would look at those like v2rider has. Those are some sick looking tires, if I had a 4x4 thats what it would have on it. Sweet rims too...

Thanks kfxanddahemi ! The tires have proven great in every terrain ive been in, and the rims are steel, with a chromed finish. I got the whole set from Trax motor sports. You have a sweet KFX, i bet it moves pretty good!

Sounds like the 26" is most practical unless you decide to
modify the engine to better power the 27" tires.

Thanks,
