I just scored a nos 24" ohtsu front tire and since I can't find a 23" at a reasonable price I wanted to see if anyone ran the 24" tire and how it looked and how they liked it.

i have one. the 250R is currently apart and being rebuilt with a number of changes but it looked fine. didnt even know it was a 24 at first. i mean its only a half inch bigger. i didnt ride with it though but im sure its fine.

I've never seen a side by side comparison, so I was worried it was too big. I already own it so I might as well run it. Thanks for the reply.

You will LOVE it. It is a slightly Bigger tire going on a All Terrain Cycle. It will offer a slightly higher speed,and roll over obstacles slightly easier. And only you or one of us freaks will know it's different ! I think you will be very happy with it ! Great score ! :)

I will have to take a picture sometime, I had a NOS OHTSU 24X8-11 PV 101 on my 1987 ATC200X and it looked a little baloony compared to the NOS OHTSU 23.5X8-11 PV 101 I have on it now ,original size for my 1987. I do know the original OHTSU 23X8-11 was on the 86 ATC250R and there was a big difference between it and the 24.

I might have to sell it and use the money to fund a 23" tire.

I would prefer an Ohtsu, just because my bike is an 86. I received the 24 and I'm going to try it on and see how it looks. Its on a really nice 86 350x wheel. Once I put it on if I like it, I'll swap out the 350x wheel for the polished wheel I have on my bike right now.

174036174037it is off my 1986 ATC 250R original tire. I bought a brand new ohtsu front a few years back knowing the day would come when a new tire would be necessary. Tire is good and has only been ridden at Glamis in its 27 years off original ATC
