There are two tyres, one is 300-18, and the other is 3.00-18. 

What does that actually mean? Are they the same? Are they different? What's the difference between a 300 and a 3.00?

This is probably a stupid question, but everyone learns somehow.

Its usually a imperial size, 3.00 = 3 inch wide,  3.50 = 3 and a half.  I run a 4.00 x18  on rear of DT250, 275x 21  on front,  see not 2.75. . 

manufactures  differ ,   and a 180x 55x 17  is 180mm. Wide 55mm profile,and 17 inch rim,,   clear aint it:unsure:
