Damn, i dunno for sure.....Ole lady got all my remaining parts for Christmas. Everything was shipped free, LoL.....50stunt had a killer azz Christmas deal. So she was doing some smart shoping.....=-)

Those tires are fuxin awesome. I've already thrown mine in some crazy curves, and they hold their own. Since im going to be doing some mini moto with mine also. Figured the Pirelli would be the way to go.....=-)

Re: street tires
pirelli are ok, but they are no better than the rest of the cheapo scooter tires. The only good tires I have heard of for 10" wheels are TT91's and heidenau's which would require a wider rim than the stock crf50 wheels. I run pirellis because there are no real good tires for a 1.6" wide rim.

The Dunlop tt91's are pretty much made for motard racing and you should be able to run them with stock rims cause they do make a 80/90 x 10"
They are probably the most expensive 10" tire out there . But they are bad *** tires , and look it too .

The pirellis are a 3x10 and they do work on stock rims , but it would be better if you had wider rims . If you put them on stock rims you can tell .

Re: street tires
New Milford Cycle in CT is where I bought my tires so I didn't have to pay shipping. I ran cheng shins on my XR100 and I still run them on my Z50R, they were awesome. TT91's are made to be used on the street as well, so they are not super soft. Definitely worth the money (unless you plan on burning your tires off). I have tried the continental zippy's and pirelli sl26's in 10x3.00" on stock XR50 wheels with no problems, but on a fifty I normally burn through tires like its a joke so I am not too picky.
