I'm ready to order new tires for my 1978 DT175 and would like to upgrade the rear tire size from the 3.50-18 to a 4.10-18. Would anyone happen to know if I'll have a clearence problem with the larger tire?

Thanks,

On my '75 DT175 I had a 4.1-18 on the rear, but I wouldn't recommend it.

I wouldn't unless you have had a new rim fitted to mount it on it will pinch and ruin the handling.

Many thanks for your comments. I'll stick with the 3.50-18

Happy Trails,
