got a line on some pirelli mx32's, 45 a tire, but per above the size is 120/80 and my bike is 110/90 (ktm 250sx). I am a shitty vet c rider, will I notice a huge difference if I run the 120/80?
thanks in advance.

At that price buy a bunch.You will probably like them just fine, if not you can sell them all day long to folks at the track for more than that and they would still be getting a deal.

That's how you fuck up a good deal. Also putting prices up like that. I've seen lots of good deals go under because of stuff like this.

Not sure what you’re upset about? a local guy selling three do you really have an issue? How am I screwing up a good deal

What is the major difference from let's say 110 90? Is it a flatter tire with a 2.15 rim?
It'll be a bit wider, and have a more rounded profile. There won't be much of a difference in feel between the 110 and the 120 tire unless you're in deep ruts. The narrower tire should stay in the ruts better. That's pretty much it. I always ran 120s on my 250 2strokes

Let me know how it works out! I have always wondered how a 120 would work on my yz250 in the sand up here compared to the 110.
