Hello all, this is my first post and I'm an admitted tech tard, so with that said here I go........
As stated in the title, I've got some excel takasago sm rims from an 04 wr450f. I'd like to fit them to my 2012 wr250r, but not sure what all is involved. I can find all kinds of threads for 450 dirt tires to a wrx and vise versa or wrx/wrr swaps but absolutely nothing for my particular situation.
I tried the easy way and just got bearings and bearing spacers for 250 figuring if they didn't fit I'd have a spare for future maintenance. Well now I have a spare set. Yay.
This being my first venture into wheels (other than changing rubber) I'd like to hear from someone who actually knows what they're talking about as apposed to my usual hit or miss method. My local shop is great for parts and scheduled maintenance but not exactly top notch at thinking on the fly for "custom" aplications.
I'm assuming my only option now is new hubs which I also assume would mean new spokes? Or is there a possibility I can find a set of bearings with proper dimensions?
Thanks in advance.
For clarification, if it helps at all, the outside diameter of 3 bearings is way to small to fit in the hub and 1 rear bearing is to large to fit in the hub.
