    I'm looking for a good street tire combination for my xr50. I used to use a
    2.75 X 10 in the front and a 3 X 10 on the rear,no specific brand.Now i'm interested to see what brands and sizes are out there that might work better than what I was using with out changing the rim size.

    I have seen the Pirelli's (SL26 3.0 X 10), and they have a great rep but are pricey.

    I got the cheapest tire from Dennis Kirk, like $10 each and they are great. I can drag knee with them no problem. Chen Shin or something...

    The 3.0 is much taller than the 2.5, so if its an adult - I would recommend it.

    we race are crf 50 a lot on weekends....I find the Pirelli's 3.0 the best tire if you don't want to grind your foot pegs down in one day, the 3.0 help somewhat ....but sliding around is fun....
