Some input needed please!

So tonight I was out riding and got a flat. Im still on dirt tires but have been wanting to make the switch to street for better stunting. I figured since the wheel is coming off I might as well do the tires now and get ready for the season. Its about to get nice here in Ohio so I would like to take care of this ASAP!

I picked up my fiddy a couple months back and it has SDG front shocks, disc brake and 12" front. I have done quite a bit more setting it up for stunting but I do not have the OEM front shocks or OEM front wheel.

I hear endo's are harder to do with the 12" and ive done them and yes they are a bit harder but possible.

My questions....

1. Should I consider picking up a pair of OEM shocks and front wheel and just putting in the adult springs or continue with the SDG stuff thats one there?

2. If answer to 1 is yes then do you know where I could get the stuff at a decent price?

3. If im going to keep the current stuff..... I just need the best place to buy street tires. The current tires that are on there are 60/100/12 in the front and 70/100/10 in the rear. The tires are just about brand new.

I have looked around but havent found alot. Ive been to minibikeoutlet and faster-minis.

I would like to stay with what I have as I love the front disc brake but whats the best size tire to run?

Any and all help would be GREATLY appreciated.

Thank you in advance!

I'm guessing you mean you want to swap your forks and wheel with a stock honda fiddy .

Remember , the front brakes on a honda fiddy is drum brake . Which work fine .

Really , all you need to do is change your front wheel to 10 inch . Go to planetminis , and in the "Chinese/Import Minis" forum , ask if anyone has a 10 inch front wheel with disc brakes for sale that will bolt up to your sdg forks . Also look in the classifieds forum there .

For the tires , you can look at www.powersportsstore.com (if you want) . 10 inch IRC street tires are pretty cheap .
