Yea those will work on either a 2.5 or a 2.75, so your cool there. Get a set of tire spoons, at least 2 if not 3. They make it soo much easier, and they are still a pain. Have fun and here is a link to some tire spoons on ebay, they seem kinda high in price but you will get the idea of what they look like.

Re: I got flat on my 2.75 by 10 inch xr50 tire

you can just go to your local honda/yamaha shop and pick up a tube for $6.. No wait..

While your there, pick up 2-3 of em, then never have to worry

I also got a couple tire irons while I was there... Poped my first tire with screw drivers, got my second 2 tires on without poping with tire irons


btw, I run a 2.5x10 tube in my 3x10 tire just fine

true, i have 4 tubes, when i pop one i swap em out and patch the old ones...patches work great, i still have 1 original honda tube in my bike with 3 patches on it LOL

remmeber to use soap and water for teh tire install and take baby steps...only pry little bits of the tire on at a time, trying to force too much on will pinch your tube as well as being hard as hell to do

just work it on an inch at a time
