Anyone have any luck putting a taller front tire on 225dx? Can't seem to find anything bigger than a 22 for an 8 inch.

No alternate rims exist for the 3/100 hub and since 8" tire choices are limited, you are pretty stuck.

Unlike the Honda 250SX/250ES with the standard 4/110 hubs where there are choices, the Yamahas have few options!

my old 225 i swaped in a 200 X hubb but i had to find bearings to fit the yamaie axle and honda hub used nissan alt bearings i had in the shop
i swaped it cuz the wider tire pushed to much mud causing it to stick it self in the gumbo
