New Tires

After my first day in some mud I realised that the stock tires are useless on such terrain.  The shallow, closely spaced treads filled with mud and became slicks.  It was time for some new meat for my WR250R.



After asking tons of questions and hours of research I decided to go with the Michelin Cross AC10.  Making a decision on tire size consumed a lot of time as well. The stock size 120/80 - 18 wasn't available for this tire.  A rider on the ADVrider forum mentioned that he mounted 110/100 -18 without any problems.  I wanted the largest tire that could fit my bike so I decided to give that size a try.

I found the best price and free shipping at Amazon.com.

                       

The tires arrived in two days with my Amazon Prime membership.
