Re: wheel options
I'm surprised when I searched the Internet that I couldn't find much in the way of alternate wheels for the TRX. I was after either spoked wheels or 5/10 spoke mags. Any suggestions or links greatly appreciated.

Re: wheel options
Running dunlop q2 and they´ve never failed me, they´re a quite flat profile and i read up on an article that a 190 tyre is a great option for the 5,5 rim...so will be tested next time around!Tarwetijger wrote:viewtopic.php?p=28026#p28026jim280885 wrote:reviving this topic cos the motomaniac link is dead and I am curious about the same topic.
