Hey All, I want to put some WRR wheels on the WRX for more ease for off road adventures.
I know lot of you folks put WRAP wheels, I am not sure of their cost. How much shall one expect to pay for stock OEM WRR wheels?

Also, I want to keep my front brakes from the WRX, so does the bigger rotor from the WRX a direct bolt on the WRR front wheel??

Will appreciate the input!

Thanks!

I'm in the same boat as you.

I'd like to expand on your front rotor question by asking if the larger WRX rotor will have any clearance issues with the WRR wheels (caliper / spokes) ???

The WR-250X front brake rotor will not fit the WR-250R front hub because the two bikes use a different wheel hub on the front.

So to change to the WR250R wheels, you have to also give up on the powerful breaking of the wr250x? Meaning put the WR250r calipers on the x as well?

Just the caliper adapter.



I was thinking more of the Warp9 route....R sized wheels with an X sized front rotor.

Hi I got here through Google Search - hope you don't mind.

Has either Evol or Fijiman succeeded with the mod ?

I'm in the market for a WR250X for my son and me. He will be the main rider - at least for now, probably mostly street use and I want to take it occasionally to the dirt. So my idea was to get dirt wheels for the occasion.

I checked the Warp9 wheel offer. What are the other necessary modifications ? I'm not clear about the caliper adapter post. Also what sprocket size you suggest ?
