bent wheels

[redexrider4290]

the other night while riding my brother slid on some ice into me.

my front- right(not that it matters) rim bent in pretty bad. he said it might be able to be bent back out but i don't think it can?

does anyone know the stock rim size for a 03 250ex i read that the tire size was 22-10-7 but i wasn't sure if the rim was 10-7 also or something else if anyone knows the wheel size and possibly where i could get a new one for cheap i would really apreciate it

thanks

10 by 5.5

[redexrider4290]

so the stock rim size is 10 by 5.5

are they the same size wheels as a 400ex because my brother's wheels (he has a 400ex) look like they are the same as mine?

100% sure they are 10 by 5.5?

thanks again

[redexrider4290]

are you sure they are 5.5 because i can only find wheels that are 10 by 5 not 10 by 5.5

does that mean i have to buy 2 new rims that are 10 by 5 instead of just one thats 10 by 5.5

any information would really really be apreciated

thanks

Most front rims are 10x5. You can try to straighten it with a press. Depending on how it is bent, it may just end up driving you crazy. You can find oem fronts pretty cheap by scouring the forums or look on e-bay. If going with aftermarket, look for a red lable douglas minimum, and preferably, a rim with a rolled lip for strength. Keep in mind that the offsets may be different if you are looking at only replacing the one. You can buy any used oem honda front. I believe Suzuki/kawie are the same from the z//ltr/kfx models as well.

the stock honda wheels are an odd size, thats why you cant find aftermarket wheels the same width. but 400ex wheels are the same, so you can use them

The DID dirtstar wheel is the same as the OEM honda wheels
