    250sx aluminum wheel swap

    Hello everyone, im new to the site. Been reading alot before I start asking questions. So will any 4/110 10 inch aluminum 3.0 + 2.0 offset work on the front? I want rid of the bulky tire. I figured I would swap the rear out as well in the future. Kinda would like them all to be the same brand and match up. And when I go ahead on the rear wheels should I get 10" tall?

    Got this thing practically from the original owner. All documents title, service work since new. Those are original grips, seat cover, and I have the two factory rear tires.

    I bought mine with a 200x front end already on it. It has the original 11" rim. I happened to have an extra pair of rear rims from a 200x that I put on. I know it doesn't really answer your question, but when you're done, you'll like the look. I'm also not sure if the front is a 4/110 pattern.

    I wish I could see a pic of your machine. I bet it does look good.

    Ok so it looks like I was wrong on the wheel selection. I need an aluminum 4/110 10×5 2+3 offset. A 3+2 offset will work but put my valvestem on my break drum side, and I really dont want that. I am having a hard time finding an aluminum wheel with those specs. Anyone know where I can find a wheel like that? I think doug said 1990 trx200d front wheel is the same, but still no luck. Im gonna keep looking around.

    Not very photogenic at this time, but here she is. Remember I only paid $250 for it. This after I swapped the old tires onto the rear rims. I'm now running a pair of used 22x11-9 MudLites mounted on stock TRX450r rims that I bought on ebay for $135. I also included the one with the wheel spacers installed.Click image for larger version.

    Sounds like you got a good deal. Those are stock honda 450r rear rims? Were the spacers also adapters or are they the same bolt pattern 4/110?

    I feel like I got a good deal. I'm slowly fixing it up. The rear rims in the picture are stock 8" 200x rims. You have to run the spacers so the 200x rims will clear the brake drum. They are just spacers, not adapters. Same 4/110 bolt pattern. They are 1 1/2" wide and they are the good bolt on type. I don't have a picture up close with the 450r rims on it. I might not have to run the spacers since these are 9' diameter, but I still like the extra width so I'll keep them on.

    Oh ok, I see the shinny rear 200x aluminum wheels thought maybe that was the 450r wheels. I have spacers on mine but I dont know how thick they are, probably at least an 1" . Someone put them on before I purchased it. Im gonna look at some 450 wheels. Stock 250 sx rear rims are 8x8? Kinda was wondering what the factory backspacing is on the sx?

    Can't answer that. I didn't research it. My rims were rusty and nasty looking. Since I had the 200x rims, it was a given for me.
