    Aluminum rear wheels on 85 250SX

    Which aluminum wheels will fit the 1985 ATC250SX? I bought what I think are rear wheels from a Suzuki LTZ400 and these wheels will not fit over the rear brake drum. The bolt pattern is correct. I am wondering if one of the three wheelers with the 9 inch wheel is what I need. Or maybe a 300 or 400 ex rear wheel?

    You need a "big bell" rim to clear the drum. I'm not sure they are still available. But I think they are.
    Please help those who cannot help themselves.

    ALWAYS buying Museum quality machines,3 and 4 wheels. And any and ALL ,NOS parts,EVERY brand.

    I am turning my PM's Off,my Email is billsracing@hotmail.com,put 3WW in the subject. Thanx!

    On my SX I have a pair of 300EX rims on the rear. You will need a pair of 2" wheel spacers to make them work.
    There is no replacement for displacement!!!!!!!!

    300ex or 400ex won't fit either without spacers. I found a set from a Polaris Predator that would fit tho.

    Is the predator wheel 4 on 110mm bolt pattern? Also is there a possibility that a 9 inch steel wheel from a 2wd TRX300 utility might work?

    Were the predator rims 9 inch? Also are the predator rims the same off set as the Honda?

    Not really sure of the offset on them, not really sure if they were oem Polaris rims or not either. Buddy of mine had his bike apart so I borrowed one to see if it would fit.
